Orienteering 54:20 [3] 3.5 mi (15:31 / mi) +97m 14:18 / mi
Went out for some orienteering. My dad was setting courses with another club member for a event that was cancelled. Good oppurtinity for some training though, since in theory all the controls had been marked with a small paper tag (they don't use streamers in this country). I went out on the longest one of them (this was for a middle distance event). Spent some extra time out there trying to find the little tags. The biggest time lost:
11: Really shallow reentrent.Followed the wrong contour first, but when I doubled back, I must have gone right by the control point. Saw the little tag the second time though.
16: About 10 diffirent boulders lined up, and trying to find the tag between two of them, but there was no tag to be found.
Fairly slow moving terrain. The marshes were really wet, and most of the area is covered by thick moss over a layer of boulders.
Running 7:59 [3] 0.92 mi (8:41 / mi) +39m 7:40 / mi
Ran back to where my mom and dad were helping my wife finding her way around an orienteering course.
