orienteering (Stonyfell) 42:15 [3] 5.0 km (8:27 / km)
shoes: Asics Kayano 21
Wallaringa's Saturday afternoon event, on a new map drawn & set by Andrew Mogridge. Unfortunately very few people turned up, but the numbers were almost doubled by a birthday party group with 3 adults and 11 kids who divided into 3 subgroups and went around the shortest course with every sign of enjoyment, clutching their healthy snacks and fruit-box-drinks.
I found the hills on the longest course surprisingly tough (not sure why my legs were tired) but the southern section along the creek in Michael Perry Reserve, where I'd never been before, was really nice with huge palm trees and Bunya & Monterey pines. For some reason I had in my mind that 41:55 was the time to beat, so I tried hard, and although I didn't quite manage it, that time turned out to have been from someone on the medium course anyway.
