Event: QOC Long Day's Night
orienteering 1:02:46 [3]
QOC night-o
Way behind on my logging. Really loved this course and so glad Valerie pushed me to go out. I almost bagged the whole weekend but glad I didn't.
Had trouble out of the start with not quite believing it was as far to the trail junction as it seemed but then settled down and nailed the control and the next one, waving to #7 as I went by. A bit sloppy to 3 as I dropped a little lower than I intended after crossing the power line. But noticed I wasn't on my compass bearing and corrected although I did hesitate quite a bit until I crossed the streams and was confident again about where I was. Pretty much spiked 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. Okay to 9 but must have the trail a little later than I intended since I was a bit left of the control but corrected quickly enough. Couldn't find a good line through the junk to 10 but no real problem. Tried to run the chute but am so out of shape that it was tough. Can't really use my knee as an excuse - I'm just not training enough.
