Event: RMOC - Rainbow Falls
10 AM
Orienteer race 1:31:15 [3] 5.64 mi (16:11 / mi) +1243ft 13:23 / mi
shoes: 1st Pair - Saucony Guide 2
Rainbow Falls Red. A good race for me. Mistakes on #8 (8-10min, stupid), #4 (3-4min, went past it, saw 2 controls that weren't mine), bad route to #6 (1-2min). I walked a lot more than I would have liked to since it was hot and I was getting a blister on my right big toe and just feeling generally wimpy about tripping on stuff. I probably would have just made more navigation mistakes if I ran more anyway since when I run hard I make more mistakes near the end and I didn't today.
Yep, looking at the results/graph 4,6,8 killed me and I had the most lost time. Rest was great by my standards. According to the graph, for the whole cluster of people within ~10min ahead of me, 4,6,8 were the only ones they beat me on by anything more than seconds (1,2 and 12 were not spectacular either). I'm still standing by my route for 12 and blaming my blister, heat, laziness for why that was so slow.

Orienteer race 2:19:33 [2] 4.67 mi (29:53 / mi) +1529ft 22:49 / mi
shoes: 1st Pair - Saucony Guide 2
Night-O Green at Manitou Lake.
Completely messed up #4 which should have been a very easy control since it was 50m from a bend in a trail. +22-5ish minutes there aimlessly wandering around in the wrong reentrant and haphazardly relocating on the road off the wrong bend back to the same reentrant.
Took #5 (long distance) extremely cautiously after that. fence to fence to fence corner to bearing when it would have been safe to cut off a lot of corner. walked too after nearly faceplanting
I just walked on careful bearings and payed attention to the map and went pretty much right to 1-3, 6-13.
