Orienteering race (Moonlight Madness #solsti) 1:04:00 [3] 10.64 km (6:01 / km)
ahr:155 max:174 shoes: New Balance MT411GB
very difficult route choices, and some very slow trails (dark/steep/wet/overgrown - sometimes a combination of all 4)
legs felt pretty good, did the road section first, then the bush trails, was unable to run at fast enough pace in he trails so came home and didn't feel too tired.

Rogaine race (Paddy Pallin 49) 5:55:30 [5] *** 25.72 km (13:49 / km) +800m 11:58 / km
shoes: New Balance MT411GB
not a good start, broken compass after 45 mins, fell on slippery ground while the compass found the only rock nearby and shattered in about 20 pieces, brought spare moscompass to see how it would be on a rogaine
(found the SILVA thumb compass to be much much better for orienteering, but the moscompass wasn't as bad in a rogaine)
Excellent map (think orienteering map at 1:20k)
it was amazing running a rogaine with such confidence in the map, with features and controls where you expected them to be !!!
went with Alec Deslandes, we both ran well for 4 hours then Alec started to tire, we walked a bit in the 4th hour, picked up the pace again in the last 1/2 hour.
everyone we saw looked like they were having a great time
met Mounty and Glenn Horrocks 3rd last control (they were looking a little tired) saw them running down the wrong spur to the second last then up a wrong gully, they caught up to us at the control, watched them dissapear to the last control, then reappear as we got to the last control. it was nice to compete with the elites (and winners) on a few controls, we "let" them race ahead of us at the hill at the finish.
finished the race 1790 / 2400 points
4th in open men
5th overall
got a DG-200 GPS logger to see how it fared ..
testing gave me the GPS track on the native software but no quickroute..
aas able to manipulate the data file to get a working GPX file ..
will to a qiuckroute or routegadget if avaliable.
saw some people with garmin GPS devices .. not sure which events you can and which you can't take them on ..

Orienteering race (cunning running) 42:56 [4] ** 8.32 km (5:10 / km) +75m 4:56 / km
ahr:162 max:172 spiked:17/18c shoes: Asics Gel - Trabuco 13
planning to take it relativly easy, but managed to get a decent pace and kept it steady (for me that is)
one control was missing (thanks for the warning Nerise) got all controls with 2 minutes to spare, 3 minutes behind James
very good course with difficult route choice decisions, a little wet :)

ahr:158 max:175 shoes: New Balance MT411GB
was pretty happy with the run other than that, lots of good route options (over or around) which were unsure which was the fastest

Lachlan really enjoyed the orienteering (the lollies that nana took were probably a big part of his enjoyment)
he is very keen to do more :)

ahr:166 max:176 shoes: New Balance MT411GB
not a bad run
almost ran the wrong way up the track after 13, took it a little easy from there (started being more careful)
found it a little difficult to adjust to the scale of the map, or the altitude, or the drive up ? or .. something wasn't 100% right

running race (Nosh footrace) 1:29:33 [5] 15.25 km (5:52 / km) +305m 5:20 / km
ahr:167 max:176 shoes: Asics Gel - Trabuco 13
went out a little too hard at the begining, but felt ok at the same time so I didn't think it was a bad idea, the bad idea was going for the 70km cycle the day before :)
slowed down from 8-12 km as I started to feel a bit tired. took it easy on a couple of hills.
was getting sore (bruised?) soles of feet in the last 3 km and found that a huge struggle, tried to keep pushing it as hard as i could to beat the 90 min, but kept getting overtaken in the last ~4 kms
did find a bit of speed on the down hill runs though, the uphills were a much different story!
originally planned to jog back, but it took way too much out of me, so got a lift back to the start.
I now have a time to beat for next year :)
