Running 10:00 [2] 1.2 mi (8:20 / mi)
Urban Orienteering race 37:21 [5] 5.5 mi (6:47 / mi)
Selby urban - 1st
Probably the best urban of the year*
A good mix of areas and good planning kept me on my toes throughout.
Made a few wobbles
Went east to #1, west is clearly quicker
Wobbled to #2 as planning ahead to #3 distracted me and ended up at the eastern end of the high street not as planned
Set off from #3, very briefly, in the wrong direction
#13, meant to go to the west of #3 but ended up going through #2 by mistake
Curved towards the closed gate after #14 before realising
Coped with sprinty section well but had to drop the pace slightly.
Pencil in Selby next time there is an event here
Very good to see water at the end too.
Only downside was the poor control hanging, probably lost 30s in total faffing!
* - I don't think 2017 has been a great year for urban courses, I'll rank all the ones I've done after Castle Vale
