Orienteering race (Big Red Barn) 31:13 [5] 5.4 km (5:47 / km) +60m 5:29 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212 Orange
Gauteng Middle Champs at The Big Red Barn
Had another decent run, coming very close to Brad and Mike, within a minute.
Steady start and managed to mantain a good clean rhythm through the short control picking sequence from 5-18. Made a 20s mistake leaving #3 when I didn't attack the green enough and ended up running to much on paths. Then slightly too far left to #9. Had the wrong attack angle to #14 and then not enough attack speed to #18.
Didn't win any splits, but still managed to take the lead at #17 and #18 by about 30s. Lost it on the long leg to #19 however, where I'm probably 20s slow because of a lack of plan for the leg. Got caught a bit not knowing where I was. Then also had a bad plan to #20. Final 2 controls were just slow.
Well executed legs to #5, 10, 11, 12, 15.

Event: South African Sprint Champs
3 PM
Orienteering race (Woodlands) 18:49 [5] 2.96 km (6:21 / km)
shoes: Salomon 3D S-Lab Red #4
SA Sprint Champs at The Woodlands Office Park
Had a good run with almost no mistakes. Started off well but struggled to read map clearly and get into it for the first 5 controls. Second half was more open and I felt I was going backwards, but it seems not to have gone too badly as I mantained by placing. Only 1 suspect route chopice to #16 where I should have gone faster.
Haven't been so close to the top guys in a sprint for a while. :-)
