S6D day 1 - lossiemouth
kept the nerves under control but still felt a lot of pressure from myself to perform and created a bigger event in my head than what it was.
good start spiked 1 bang on but then used missed 2 due to not taking a bearing. this changed the week for me, as I now bearinged everything in the other days. ran a good race from here until the end and nailed it up to 14 losing 4 minutes on 15 and 2 on 17, along with 2 minutes on 2.
race over although it was near the end, without the 2 mistakes at the end I would have been fine and 3rd? good stuff to take from this race but feeling very down after and not in a good state. looking chris and mike poped by by chance which got me back on track and made me refocus for the other selection days.
lots of positives to take away from this, but I was completey gutted.

Orienteering race 45:50 [4] 8.44 km (5:26 / km) +50m 5:16 / km
shoes: Adidas Swoops
Marbury
7.2km, at first I thought that was insane to fit that length in this area, pretty much 2 laps round, quite a lot of boring running, only good bits where in the woods, took some good bearings and was orienteering well. also ran it as it was a similar length to the 6 days selection races so similar time wise which I have worked out and everything such as amount of controls etc.
banged my knee at the end on the 2nd last control :( which lost me 2 minutes due to walking the last leg and also lost 2 minute due to a shity bit of brambles I got stuck in
