Orienteering race 35:51 [4] 6.0 km (5:59 / km)
BOC Relay - Holmbury Hill 5.6K 190m
Running 3rd leg with Chappers 1st and Martin 2nd. They both did a good job so that when I started I had what I thought was a lead of about 3 minutes. Knew I didn't have to push too hard and promptly missed the first control. Looked easy, but I ran across the gully it was in (probably only 10 metres from the control) and didn't think it was a mapped feature. Probably lost nearly a minute. Not a great start. After that just a few seconds lost at 5 where there were 2 vague bumps wghich could have been the required knoll and I picked the wrong one to look at first.
Thereafter very clean. Physically, felt tired before I set out, but OK once running. Gradually improved and over the second half of the course, really running quite well, albeit not at absolute maximum given the race situation. Much better than yesterday.
SYO 2 ended up second, quite a long way down.
