orienteering race 1:00:00 [5]
1st leg runner...can't say I'll do that again. Hated all the people around me as I prefer to be in my own zone.....but I guess I gotta learn how to deal with it.
Crapest run of the week :( tough finish to jwoc, I was rooted at the end!!

orienteering race 32:00 [5]
Middle final.
Was feeling good mentally (not too nervous) and really good physically.
Lost lotsa tome early in the course in the tricky bit and then went to the wrong control on the 3rd last one :'(
was on the same feature and similar number nearby so I punched without second thought....
Dissapointing, but my run wasn't that great anyway and it's not like I was gonna win....
Heaps of fun though. Loved the map!!

Note
cant be bothered logging times and stuff for the previous races but will write my thoughts instead!
SPRINT:
very fun area, like the best sprint map ever!! good course too.
really really needed to pee before the start which was baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad as this was a huge distraction for the entire race and i was only 70% focused on orienteering and running hard.
consequently was very dissapointed as i could have run much faster and cleaner :(
LONG:
third last starter of the girls!!! was very fun, and felt so much better mentally than last year. made many small mistakes in the circle, which wasnt helped by the fast i couldnt read the 1:15000 map in the detail very well.
also lost my head after the second spectator and made a big 4-5min mistake from getting confused on the tracks :(
afew controls were good though!
enjoyed it, was just abit dissapointed i couldnt be cleaner....
