Event: BUSA
Orienteering 1:33:52 [4] **** 8.9 km (10:33 / km) +475m 8:20 / km
spiked:22/33c shoes: 2007 Falcons
BUSA Individual, Stanton Moor. Really really scrappy, not concentrating well and control flow/reading ahead was absolutely terrible. Not helped by the energy sapping nature of the terrain, especially the heather, which I'm still not strong enough to deal with yet...
Poor start - 15-20" lost on each of first two controls. Control description confusion/error at #6 and 7, latter was faffing too low on slope, should have read it was a 6m high crag... (20", 90"). Exit error from #12, poor route choices (heather rather than path...) to #13 & 14 (30", 1'), latter compounded by a silly error.
Hesitant in butterflies, not helped by being over-cautious on brambly rocky slopes, 90"+ lost on #19 through poor route and poor map-reading... Needless 90"+ lost faffing at #24, silly route to #27 was completely unnecessary (1') and poor exit from #30 (30") was likely down to tiredness by that point.
Not a good day really - shouldn't be 10 mins down on Chris Williamson... Some bits felt like I hadn't fully recovered from this lingering cold, maybe it's just the lack of running in the last couple of weeks caused by the cold...

Warm up/down 10:00 [1]

Slow run with Chris E up to the start, then jog/walk/cough back down to download. Run up there didn't feel entirely comfortable, should have indicated what was to come...
