Orienteering race 1:21:12 [5] 9.9 km (8:12 / km) +360m6:56 / km
Midland Championships, Bentley Woods, M50L (9.9 km, 360 m) in 81:12. Pretty clean run on a generally runnable area on a glorious Sunday lunchtime - so sunny in fact that I needed sun cream for the second day in a row! Thomas (2nd M20E) shot past me on 15-16, and apparently I ran most of the second half with Nathan Lawson's dad from OD. A good workout.
Urban Orienteering race 53:00 [4] 6.4 km (8:17 / km) +50m7:58 / km
3.30 am start from Glasgow, arriving at Warwick University at 9 am for the BOF Selection Race, then to Rugby by 1 pm for the Rugby Urban Event (6.4 km, 50 m) in 53:00. Steady run (not really racing) round a surprisingly interesting area on a sunny Saturday afternoon - so sunny in fact that I almost missed my start buying sun cream!
Sore foot and knees not great, so missed intervals and went for a slow plod through Mugdock from Clober Road car park to the Khyber Field and back in 52:14. Very muddy underfoot in several places.
