Orienteering race 1:51:00 [3] 12.2 km (9:06 / km) +670m 7:08 / km
shoes: OROC
Really enjoyable outing at Carlingford, but bulk of course was in cloud and I spent about 30 minutes longer than I should have done, but probably never enjoyed a bad performance more! First technical orienteering since Shamrock and I was managing fairly well for first half, but was all at sea and rudderless for 11 & 12 and thereafter my navigation was loose. Circle navigation was fine but it was getting to the circle that was the issue. I couldn't find major catching features! Kept having to clear the magnifier and since it only magnifies a small part, I struggled to get an over view on the longer legs. Main aim was to get back in one piece ahead of next weekend, so job done!
