Stretching x1
10 AM

Orienteering race (Wisliger OL) 59:09 [4] 9.65 km (6:08 / km) +250m 5:26 / km
shoes: Innovate Roclite 212

Wisliger OL.
actual distance: 7.9k, 250m
A lot better race than last week. More used to the terrain and a better balance between going direct, but also look at some routechoices for longer legs. A nice race overall, with some good routechoice options. My running was ok (maybe I even paced myself too much), but still a bit sloppy at times with compass-work etc. Main errors
#1 - had a good long route, but should have stayed west on the path at the end, rather than fight up through the undergrowth
#2 - could have been more direct, but drifted off to the north and dog-legged
#6 - bigger error: came in off the path to earlier (wasn't concentrating enough). Realised after 30s of looking
#7 - again ran off without setting a proper bearing... ended up running a slight dogleg that wasn't necessary
#8 - hesitant in the control circle
#10 - was going the right way, but saw another control (#11) and got sucked towards it before realising...
#12 - interesting route choice. I went West, but I think a direct option (despite climb) could have been quicker
#14 - hestitant in the control circle
#16 - didn't realised the red path through the out-of-bounds was acceptable... ran round which lost 30s
Lots of smaller things relating to bad habits (not setting a bearing properly) and some hesitancy. With that and some running I could probably shave some time off, but still would be a way down on the winner...

Hiking 3:30:00 [1]

15.4k
Met up with Dawn and Andy at their freinds' (Nigel and Helena's) place in Nuglar, near Liestal. Did a long hike around the hills, from Nuglar, to St Pantaleon, Büren, Hof Kleckenberg, near Seltisberg, down to the Orisbach and back up past the Curryhuus. A nice day, but some tired legs
