Orienteering race (Long) 1:09:09 [4] *** 7.2 km (9:36 / km) +350m 7:44 / km
19c
Day 2 - Mt Alexander.
Really fun area on the side of a rocky slope, with potential for big mistakes if concentration was to waver. I had a steady run. Just some hesitation/standing still on the way to c7 and c10. Pleased to finish 2nd ahead of faster runners who made bigger mistakes, but still a sizable 6mins down on the very in-form Lizzie!

Day 1 - Yorkshire Hill.
Good race in some really fun gold-mining terrain. Maybe didn’t start out at 100% speed as has heard it was pretty tricky, but actually it wasn’t that tricky if you were reading well, and the terrain was super-fast for running. Small hesitation into c6 (20secs). Passed Aislinn here, then Lizzie caught us at c10. We caught Kathryn at c12. By c14 I had been dropped by the other three so did my own thing to c15 and got this first as they all missed it. I tried harder this time to stay in the group til the end, which I managed because the course got a little more technical with controls closer together. 2nd, 2mins down on Lizzie.

Event: Easter 2013
Orienteering race (Sprint Prologue) 18:08 [4] *** 2.9 km (6:15 / km) +90m 5:25 / km
22c
La Trobe Uni, Bendigo.
Not a good race. Lost 45secs to c5 through the green - followed the wrong gully up (to c6) and stuffed up the correction. Biggest mistake in a sprint ever I think. (also during this leg I stacked it badly tripping over some wire on a broken fence). My performance over the rest of the course was pretty poor; no flow and just not on the ball. 5th and over 2mins down!
