Some awesome rockery like terrain.
Pretty excited to be orienteering again!
Solid first 2 controls and then was too confident on the long leg to the 3rd and stuffed up completely. pulled too far right and then stuffing around for ages trying to work out where I was. 4min down the drain..
Back on track after that through to 13. Then caught up and passed Nick Barrable and got too excited about racing, promply making a big parrellel error and losing 2.5mins..
Okay again from there through to the finish.
Nice to be up there with everyone, but pretty frustrated with those 2 big mistakes. Could've (classic orienteer) been a really good result.
