Orienteering race (French Long Champs) 49:00 [3] 5.0 km (9:48 / km)
shoes: Inov8 oroc 280

Le Revard. Not good at all - cack forest and not a great map. I wasn't up to it though - maybe a bit tired from recent weeks, plus lounging about in the sun for a couple of hours before I started wasn't clever. Keen to do it all, but once GG caught me 10mins at #7 I was thoroughly demoralised. Felt tired and was conscious of the fact I'd be out for kicking on 2.5hrs if I kept going.

Cret de Benevent. Big race this - came 50th/200. Pretty grotty forest - lots of brashings. But not overly tricky. A few wobbles, plus 2 sizeable errors (costing 2-3mins). Not bad for a first bash at this stuff.

Orienteering 50:00 [2] 5.0 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: Inov8 oroc 280

Le Grand Roc Sud. First sesh in France - nothing special, quite limestoney and hard to run, but plenty of paths. Did 12/19 controls on the course on my map - what turned out to be quite a high ratio for the week.
