Orienteering race 49:33 [3] 5.8 mi (8:33 / mi)
shoes: VJ Integrator (8.5)

Count them - four orienteering races in five days! Went to the SYO Spring Cup at Treeton as it's only five minutes from work. The aim was to navigate smoothly and just spend a bit more time running with a map in hand. Started off well, and was going nicely until half way when I caught up Andy P. I then lost concentration and made a 2 minute mistake on 17 where I was too low and overshot. It took me ages to relocate, I was sure I was in the right place but nothing fitted. Fortunately, Andy P missed 18 by a similar amount and we were back together for the rest of the course. Good fun, and Treeton is quite a nice little area.

Running warm up/down 8:09 [2] 1.0 mi (8:09 / mi)
shoes: VJ Integrator (8.5)

Out to the start and back from the finish.
