Event: Rumbalara Bush Run

8 AM

Run race (Rumbalara Bush Run) 1:20:30 [5] 16.0 km (5:02 / km)
ahr:172 max:185 shoes: Brooks Trance 10

Really humid for this one. Tough start straight up stairs and a huge hill, the pace at the front was really quick and I soon had to back off. I sat in 4th the whole race behind Brett Starky who won by a fair margin (70 min), another guy and Glenn Horrocks (both 77 min). First half struggled to get into a rhythm but finished off stronger than I started after getting to the bottom of Katandra. Race was a bit too short for my liking, was just starting to get into it when I finished.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series) 46:42 [5] *** 10.0 km (4:40 / km)
ahr:169 max:189 spiked:29/30c shoes: Brooks Trance 10

O at White's Creek in Annandale. Not the best area, mostly a street course so didn't make any real errors. Lost about 20 seconds looking for no.23 when the SI unit was tied to a pole about 5 metres away. Should have read the description! Got all controls 2 min over so 580, same as Glenn Horrocks.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series) 48:00 [5] ***
ahr:166 max:184 spiked:27/28c shoes: Brooks Trance 10

O at Manly Dam. Training had finally caught up on me and legs were feeling tired for this one. Lost 2 minutes near the start when I couldn't find the track leading into no.22 and ended up bush bashing through the green. As usual picked up too many controls. Should have left out no.20 which would have gained me 10-20 points and no.10 which would have gained another 10 points. Got all but no.3 and 5 in 48.20 so 540 points. 10 points ahead of the next.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series) 50:08 [5] *** 11.3 km (4:26 / km)
ahr:170 max:186 spiked:25/30c shoes: Brooks Trance 10

Good course at Cumerland Hospital. Ran pretty well but shouldn't have gone for all the controls. A 10 pointer (no.9) cost me 20-30 points so should have left it out. There was a lot of detail in the hospital so lost about a minute in total figuring out high fences, stone walls and finding controls. Finished in 50.08 so 540 points, surprised that 2nd was 60 points back as I def didn't pick the best route plan.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series) 45:05 [5] *** 9.9 km (4:33 / km)
ahr:173 max:187 spiked:25/28c shoes: Brooks Trance 10

Started with Mounty and tried to run hard and set the tone for the Summer after losing form the past couple of years. Felt pretty good and only lost a little bit of time around Balls Head (maybe 30 secs) but didn't slow down on the rougher tracks and more technical areas so was ok. Got to the streets and was still feeling good running with Mounty for most parts, he mentioned on the latter parts of the streets we were going at 3.10 km/hr. I tried to hammer to get back in time but was 5 seconds over. Missed two 10 pointers (no.2 and 10) so scored 570.
