orienteering race 56:00 [5]
Last day of Easter, on a really cool map today!
Started ok, caught Lauren at 5 or whatever the end of the long leg was and she totally threw me. She must have been standing so close to the control but didn't see it, so I thought it wasn't down there and looked around some more boulders. Lost a couple of mins.
Afew controls later Vanessa and ilka caught us and we all made a big mistake (no8??). Annoyed at myself cuz I knew I should have done my own thing but decided the others would know where they were going. Lost quite a bit of time there.
The rest were good - just really slow in terms of running speed. Feel so unfit and shin hurty :(
Need to learn to ignore others around me and trust my own navigation!
Really dissapointed in my results this Easter, hard to put my shin injury and consequent lack of fitness out of my mind. but feeling positive that I've still navigated well to most controls so should be getting back into it when my shin comes right.
