X-cntry running 10:00 [2]
shoes: Asics
Warm up run
Orienteering 49:32 [3] *** 5.9 km (8:24 / km) +200m 7:11 / km
shoes: Icebug
By the time I got to the 1st control I had already considered just walking back to my car and driving off. Totally blew the 1st 2 or 3 controls. Almost 7 min's to find the 1st one, seriously!!? After that it got better and more normal, but w/ my motivation totally sapped from doing so horribly on the first few I didn't really have much drive for the rest.
I think my mistake was letting the vegetation veer me off of my plan combined with trying to run without slowing down to make sure I was following exactly where I was going. That led to my disorientation winding up near #5 instead of #1, and on way to #2 I was very, very sloppy too.
My only solace is tomorrow is another day and another race. But definitely not happy w/ this debacle today.
CY18 control goal count = 379
