O Race race (Race) 19:37 [5] 3.1 km (6:20 / km) +90m 5:32 / km
shoes: Asics Nimbus 15
Nice finish to a great Big 5 event. Legs were a bit tired after the preceding events. Really nice sprint course to end. A good mixture of terrain with 3 intense areas with 3-4 tight cris-cross controls. The 2nd one tricked me as I made a parallel error before realising I'd stopped one set of houses too soon.
Good sprint map which we can hopefully access again.

ahr:163 max:174
Finally a decent race. At the start I realised I'd left my compass at the arena. The result was that I took more care with my orienteering, using more than just compass and pacing. So a far more steady and in control run. Seems I need to relegate the compass to the back pocket for emergency use only!

shoes: Inov8 Xtalons
Felt pretty decent physically despite sinusitis and concern about possible itb. Seems it was more likely a strain of the calf.
My orienteering is not great at the moment. Lots of mistakes including an horrendous 180 error. Easily lost 20mins.
Can only hope 2016 brings an improvement.
