Orienteering 47:20 [4]

York Uni Urban orienteering event
Good armchair planning, not sure the planner or controller went round the courses!
Map strange in places (new hedges, building and stuff).
At start I got told not to cross the main road apart from bridges but the map on showed it out of bounds 75% of the road so a lot of people ran across but I decided to stick to what I was told (especially as I ran in my Ebor top).

Run -- Trail 2:20:00 [2]

Matt planned a nice loop from mine out to Stamford bridge to Elvinton and back. I said "matt I think thats a long way"
"it will be 90mins" he said,
"Its 22miles Matt Speake"

So Dad dropped us off at Stamford bridge because I calculate in my head it would be down to 12 ish mile
After 85mins I said "I think we over estimated this"

Stamford bridge, down the Derwent to Elvinton, over the fields to grandads, to farmer Phil's, over the aerodrome, Heslington and back,

Orienteering 1:30:00 [3]

We drove down the hill to a new forest with less snow but was a lot colder -23. (heat raises?)

Set off to the start and with in 100m realised my shoes wasnt that tight but laces was already totally frozen. During the session my feet also frozen to the point i couldn't feel anything. A couple of hours after I finished the training my feet started to hurt, turns out my feet must have been rubbing a lit in the loose shoes becaus I have 4 blisters and 3 very big + blood in my new shoes. One the plus side I didnt think I had any blood going to my feet.

Mila By Night
Not the best way to gaffle these races. 70+ men chasing the lead.
And not the best performance by me. 3x 50
But had fun and its a long way to 10mila
and this was the first significant step towards next season.
