Orienteering race (Hopton) 1:39:46 [5] 9.98 km (10:00 / km) +520m 7:56 / km
shoes: VJ IROC O-shoes
Official distance: 8km, 520m climb
Horrible terrain. Very steep, and even where it flattened out it was largely unrunnable. I struggled round, but wa knackered from the start. Shared a bit with the M35/40 course of USKiwi and BCTRay, although the formers superior fitness post-marathon really shone trough.
Least I've enjoyed a race in a while. Two/ three errors of a couple of minutes to boot!

shoes: Brooks Ghost 4
Official distance: 5k, 90m climb
Good race. Around the old town and in and out of the castle. Decent run. Made small errors at #13 and #20, as well as briefly stopping out of breath on the way to #21. Maybe wrong route to #8 as well.
Finished 12th out of 38. At lot more enjoyable than this morning

shoes: VJ IROC O-shoes
Official distance: 10.5k, 375m climb
Decent run. No major errors, although the slopes were hard work going up and down. Small mistake at number 9, when I dropped down too low.
Second half far faster and easier than the first. Overall 6 out of 17, which was a decent result

Event: Park Race 1: Wandle Park
7 PM
Orienteering race (Wandle ParkRace) 27:35 [5] 6.5 km (4:15 / km)
shoes: Brooks Ghost 4
Good run, no real errors, but clearly tiring a lot towards the end (comparatively as well). Can't complain about 5th though, one of my best results, and given the way training has been that's a minor miracle.... wanted to stay be need to get back to work
