Event: Dexter Corn Maze-O
11 AM
Orienteering 49:11 *** 3.47 mi (14:10 / mi) +1m 14:10 / mi
ahr:148 max:183 14c shoes: Roclite #2
Corn Maze O long. Closed gap on Igor, which meant I had the lead, but then blew it by not thinking about the directions correctly, staying in the maze when I should have used the entrance as a shortcut.
Very fun, let your guard down for a moment and very hard to relocate. Even if you'd been through the area a few times, there was no guarantee you wouldn't stuff up the next time.
Super fun!

Orienteering 14:45 *** 1.27 mi (11:35 / mi) +1m 11:33 / mi
ahr:166 max:187 10c shoes: Roclite #2
Modified my technique - no compass, just thumbed the next junction ahead, rather than behind as I tend to do in conventional o (and the previous round). Hugely minimized bobbles, and had a nice finish as well. ~5 minute win, but granted Igor and I were running after getting familiar with the course so the two young ladies should get credit for it.

Control pickup. Much easier walking! Except, again, if you let your guard down, you miscount junctions and make mistakes.
