Stage two of warm-up. Had to go find my bib so had an 8 minute pause. Ended up showing up a minute late to my call-up so got pushed back a bit. Then just before punching the start, I realized I had dropped my compass when tightening my shoe so had to go back for it.

orienteering - General 1:27:21 [4] 14.57 km (6:00 / km) +363m 5:20 / km
Fun race and terrain. Started off well, had a poor patch in the middle with 3 mistakes, and then finished clean.
First mistake 11, I was looking to hit the indistinct trail but missed it or didn't find it, got pushed around by the green and eventually into the olive green. Spotted the house and corrected from there.
Next, I took the worse route choice to 13 where Eric Bone passed me. So I must have just rushed 15, so had bad exit direction direction, then tripped and retied my shoe which added to the mess, but did a good job stopping and relocating off the trail. Should have stopped earlier or taken time to take the good exit though.
Then followed 15 up with another mistake. Common one, where I lost focus on the 2nd stage of the legs (past trails in middle). Pushed on, from guessing where I was, which was wrong. However, I'm happy I did a good job focusing from there on out. My head started to go a little loopy, so I was zig zagging a bit and not executing everything efficiently, but I kept it clean so I'm fairly happy.
