One Crusoe circuit. The swim out to the new swimming platform might have been on if not for its total occupation and subsequent list.

Dear me. I have just received the "Bush Orienteering in Victoria 2014" pamphlet. I hope certain people in the Bendigo club don't see it. Two thirds of the bush orienteering in Victoria isn't mentioned. Yes, the Bendigo fixture isn't finalised yet. But it might have made sense to have a pointer to the web site. I suppose two of the maps on the front cover are from Bendigo. Perhaps that could be classified as false advertising... Really the pamphlet should be named "Bush Orienteering around Melbourne in 2014".
In all seriousness, the way our fixtures are changing hasn't really been fullay appreciated. There is a hiearchy of events-

1. National
2. State Champs and State Series
3. Regional fixtures. In this category there is the Melb Bush-O, Bendigo local events, AWOC, and perhaps Ballarat.

Of the regional events, the Bendigo series could be split into two levels... normal and elevated. The elevated events include the Bendigo Rocks Series, Bendigo To-Day and the sprint specials such as the Orientshow. Few serious bush orienteers miss these. The timing of these latter events is set where possible to fit into the other bush fixtures. I will keep my head down for now.

Nearest forest to work. Exactly 30 minutes!

Just a little more.

At least I managed a run... whilst balancing Achilles, knee, hamstring and back issues.
