Test running the JEC Relay courses with Marcus and Rog. Good to be running them at speed with dead and flat bracken, despite having to run in trainers because I'd forgot my o-shoes.

Terrain Run 1:14:00 [3]

WOC long today. No entry and all Brits running late so just jogged to start and ran in the terrain following orienteers. Target was to find 20 controls. Found 24. Then stood in the pissing rain to watch athletes get lost on poor quality maps. WTF !!! Swedes are sometimes so stupid.
