Orienteering race (World Masters Sprint Qual) 16:11 [5] 3.3 km (4:54 / km) +25m 4:44 / km
ahr:167 max:178 shoes: Under Armour Run Fast
Made my debut in M40 (managed to skip M35, although only due to injury stopping me racing in Gothenburg 2 years ago) at the Uni of Auckland Epsom Campus.
Real tricky sprint, easyish start but then things got real hard. I felt like i spent a lot of time standing still looking for how to get from one control to the next, and a few controls needed some really wide routes which always makes you think you've missed something. i can see a few routes where i could have save a few seconds but the most time lost was getting stuck behind oldies on some narrow passageways - there was heaps of them (both oldies and narrow passageways). I lost 20 secs on 15, not actually sure what i did wrong there besides traffic, need to see routegadget. Managed to get the win, hopefully the other old guys i'm racing struggle as much as i do to race 2 days in a row!
