Orienteering race 38:02 [4] 6.0 km (6:20 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-talon 212 Black
IOC Middle Distance - Castle Archdale - 4.6Km
Poor run. Leg locked up earlier in the morning. It had recovered but was a distraction and spent too much time concentrating on running rather than navigating. In the end legs were basically fine - calf was only very mildly sore at the end.
Problems were mainly caused by the vagueness of the terrain. Lost time on 1,3,5-6,6-7,15, but the main time loss was about 3 mins on 5 where I didn't have a proper plan and then couldn't recognse any definite features near the control. Not far away from it, but never knew exactly where I was until I went back up to the veg. boundary.
Was also very slow getting across fences and very deep ditches, mainly because I was trying to protect the leg.
