| shoes: LOP |
| Red 2: somewhat less crappy orienteering
slow start, i was quite relaxed this morning, this was a training weekend and so i allowed myself no usual rushing to run faster than i should.
i generalized a lot during this course, something i don't do very often, and it payed off as i hit most controls except for 11 and 14, first one being due to the shitty mapping of the area and 14 due to slight rushing to finish.
I'm still in a decent shape :) |

| Red 1: crappy orienteering.
Started fairly slow, trying to find the damn trail when cutting through the woods realizing only afterwards that i came down to it eventually, mom told me i was running on it, i wouldn't have known otherwise.
sketchy map didn't really match the terrain, going to 2 was slow as i was trying to avoid the green but it was impossible since it was everywhere. going down to 3, hitting the stone wall which extends further than shown on the map. getting stuck in the green on way to 4,quite some time lost. route to 7 was around on trail but lost the small trail and went up too early. screwed up 10 going up early again, green to 11.
tough orienteering when you expect certain things to come up, esp. near the control, and not only they're not there but there a hell-lot of other unmapped crap. |

| Brown course at Hickory Run. I actually liked the woods this time around b/c they took us to better part of the map. Anyway, stil sick so taking it really easy, jogging only. I was suprised that I could actually jog in the woods b/c usually it requires some effort but then again it wasn't hilly at all.
My time would have been ~40min have I not spent some time looking for #1 control (and shivering b/c it was damn cold), which was incorrectly drawn on my map. should have figured out by the legend that it was on the boulder 100m away. oh well. |
