British Relay Championships 2016, Leg 2 for CLYDE Cruisers on M50 (5.1 km, 170 m). Much better run with only one miss (a depression in a vague wooded area - Donald made the same mistake looking for the other control in that area) and running into a deep ditch full of brown mud between 1 and 2 (and spending several subsequent controls trying to get the mud off my map). Donald 38:22, SKW 39:44, Dave 39:41. 8th overall.

British Championships 2016, M50L (8.9 km, 240 m) in 101.11. Disappointing run with big mistakes at 2 and 7 in the vague semi-open (both involving relocating off 15!), a bad miss at 18 in the woods, silly mistake getting the wrong side of an uncrossable fence at 28, and many smaller mistakes. A massive 19.30 (approximately) in errors. Disappointed with my failure to cope better with the semi-open, but not sure how I would do any better if I did it again, and frustrated by the bingo pits (e.g. 8, 27) which are a complete lottery unless there happens to be someone punching at them.

Travel to Shropshire.

Steady round Mugdock on a damp but sunny evening.

Steady jog round Mugdock from the Hole-in-the-Wall car park on a lovely sunny if slightly chilly evening. Knee still a bit sore.

Rest day - knee a bit sore.
