Orienteering race (JOK Prologue) 25:40 [5]
shoes: Mudclaw 300 b/r
Lots of brashings at Faskally these days. Hence pretty physical. Ok run but surprised to be 3rd less than 1 min down behind JamesC and KeithT.
Orienteering (JOK Chase) 20:01 [3]
shoes: Mudclaw 300 b/r
Less physical than the Prologue..thankfully as on my last legs after last night.
Virtually caught both JC and KT at 3, also with SamG. Lost the latter before 4 and was up with JC only from then on. Just couldn't keep pace with him over the last couple in the forest and then the caravan park. Nice little sprint finish with MurrayS :-). Happy enough with 2nd behind JamesC.

shoes: ORoc 340
Craig a'Barns
Great head to head fun. Tough terrain but we knew that...really tough in the thick low visibility bits, nicer in some of the open stuff.
Gaffles soon split people up periodically saw RL, CA and a few others. Made a mess of 19 and so so slow through some of the hands and knees thicker stuff..poor route choices!

Weather so good. Couldn't not.
Carnferg loop from Birse back road. Via Newmill up the track, up to the top then back on the southern track with an extra bit of terrain in Balfour at the end. Fairly ploddy but lovely out.
Weary. Rest day tomorrow.

Nearly dipped out of this being knackered but too nice a night and I was today's Ballogie bus driver so...it hurt as usual.
6 x 2/1
8 x 1/1..may even have been 9
Reverse of the normal long route to start with but round back of Baudy Meg. Held it together just.
..but Glen Tanar and views there from were gorgeous tonight and a fantastic turnout..maybe the best I've ever seen.
