Orienteering race 1:05:23 [5] **** 9.6 km (6:49 / km) +345m 5:46 / km
spiked:16/23c shoes: VJ Falcon
JK Individual Day 1, Leith Hill.
Running well and no big errors, finished a little bit frustrated with a number of small misses. Looking back probably missed slightly more than I thought.
#2 - hesitant on longish leg and distracted by unmapped path, should have just got on with it. (-45s)
#4 - attacked using unmapped path even though it seemed too soon, went to wrong control (-1 min)
#8 - wiggly route and couldn't work out where in circle control was meant to be, it was a re-entrant but on the path - doh! (-30s)
#10,12,13 - not quite in control, slightly off line into and out of circles (-30s total)
#14 - in control all the way, got near circle and headed to wrong thicket as attack point (-45s)
#15 - came out of 14 telling myself to be careful, could only see one thicket and went to it even thought it was to the left. Control just where expected - not mine! Brief panic and sorted it out (-1min)
After that then running v hard, got a good split by going down and up not round to #17.
#19 - navigated to pit not depression in circle, briefly confused (-30s)
Finished 11th, 8 mins behind James Logue (57:21). Much better than I would have done 3 months ago so pretty pleased, but could have done better.......

Running warm up/down 30:00 [3]
shoes: VJ Falcon
This was all warm-up, remembered too late about warming down and was already changed and warm.
2.8km to the start which helped but got some stretching and strides in too.
