Orienteering 2:09:56 [3] ***** 6.34 mi (20:30 / mi) +247m 18:17 / mi
19c shoes: Salomon Speedcross 3
Pretty bad run for me. Difficult terrain had me spinning in circles.
Started out ok until I blew past #4. Thats when I realized the map was 1:7,500, but even then it didnt seem to help much. Thought I was following terrain well, but lost a ton of time on 6, reattacking twice, once from apparently the wrong spot. 7-12 went OK, but then got really confused on 13. Seems like I must have walked right past it after I did end up finding it. Overshot 15 and got almost to the road. Wandered aimlessly in the woods north of 16 for a long time, happened upon 17 and was able to attack from there. Then the last 3 went ok.
One of my worst performances in a long time. I need to focus better when the terrain is so tricky instead of trying to brute force it. Also need to attend some trust therapy sessions with my compass.
