Wessex Night League Chandler's Ford Knightwood 2nd
Not ideal not having my main O lamp, then Nick borrowed one of my spares. Alpkits okay for a bit of trail running but woefully under powered and a narrow beam. Felt quite nervous before, not really sure why. Thought I'd give myself up to a minute to nail a good route then go. Plan also became minimise risk in the woods, paths were indistinct and the light wasn't good enough to run quickly. Always thought I'd be able to clear up, a few ones near the end required a bit of route choice thinking. 2nd behind Nick Jarvis, 2:40 down. He's definitely got faster running speed than me currently. Twisted my left ankle in one woods section. Orienteered pretty well, felt steadily strong and in control.
