West Point Sprint Quickroute
I didn't make it up to West Point in time to run the middle distance race on Saturday. But, I did make it for the afternoon's sprint race. Here is my Quickroute:
The Quickroute track shows pretty clearly the different character of the different parts of the course. The first loop was mostly forest, mostly rough, mostly slow. The second part of the course was much faster and a different kind of orienteering. That short of variety is nice.
Running around the camp at West Point was fun. Still, running around the camp at West Point when your surrounded by some of the best orienteering terrain in the nation seems a bit strange. I'm reminded of Aspleaf's sprint O' flowchart.
