Black Course @ Eyam

Took farily easy and tries to concentrate on the orienteering. Started out ok but ended up a pretty poor run:

1,2 - fine;
3 - slightly right but visualisation good enough to quickly correct (~10s)
4 - poor bearing but again quickly corrected with good visualisation.
5 - Into deep heather, total lack of concentration drifted left, relocated without much confidence. I think staying low would have been much quicker and out of the heather. (~1-1.5min)
6 - 9 time loss on all and struggling physically in the deep heather. Poor bearings and visualisation on 7 and 9 particularly resulted in significant time loss (~1.5min and 1min).
10 - ok
11 - Have severe issues with the map going to this one. Ended up ~150m right but shouldn't have?
12-18 ok generally
19 - technical area very muddy and undulating making this area very physical navigated to and punched 24 first which was on the straight line to 19 plu very hesitant (~30s)
20 - Strange mapping and a little more time loss (~20s)
21 - 22 okish
23 - Got wrong hill initially (~20s)
24 - Had already been to this one but completely spooned it with a poor bearing (~45s)
25-finish ok

I think I find it quite hard to concentrate when I'm not going 100% and having a tough weeks training made concentration more difficult. A good work out anyway. Official climb on map was 285m; rubbish - I counted 520m optimum route and then there were many short sharp undulations making it even more physical. R.Calf v.stiff again.

Running long 1:10:49 [3] 9.5 km (7:27 / km) +165m 6:52 / km
ahr:135 max:158 shoes: Inov8 Flyroc 310

Run to Castleton from the event to meet Amy. Was pretty knackered in fairness, stopped off at Co-op in Bradwell for fodder to keep me going. Walked/jogged some of the uphills
