That's a good point.Originally Posted by Chris
We run nav courses for the WFRA and people want to know about navigating rapidly as though there's some secrets, but really once you are that lost you are better off forgetting about the race, calming down and getting off the hill.
The problem is that few runners practice, only pick up a map when lost in a race, adrenalin pumping, in a rush, and have little chance of navigating competently. Much better off just putting the race out of your mind and getting on with the navigation and relocating to a definitive point, then if you want to carry on the race, carry on.
