Yorkshire Pudding Weekend
Chasing Sprint - Prologue
University of Leeds & Woodhouse Moor
Didn't really do very well, won the Junior Women only by a few seconds and was beaten by most of the boys.
Got really confused on the way to #4 and mis counted the roads and ended up going down a dead end when i had seen it was fenced off on the map! really annoying! Then took a rubbish route choice on the long leg because i got all flustered!
Bit of a disaster really.
Need to - Concentrate more and plan long legs before i get to them!

Chasing Sprint - Final
Much better race, kep calm even though i had 9 people on my course starting within the 30 seconds behind me! Legged it to the first one and when turned round they were all there running at me in a line which was scary! Ran my own race though and a few people missed a control out so we got away from them. Ran with Stuart Fraser. 4-5 didn't think you could get through the gate so i went the long way round, but it was open, oops! Tired at the end and had to walk up some steps :( Managed to get away from Kirsten and win, but lost Stuart a few controls from the end.
Really good fun though, i love to sprint! :)

Night Event - oooh scary!
FREEZING!
Was so ridiculously easy because i only ran the short when i normally do the long. Basically all on paths or following fences.
Finally managed to beat Aiden, yay :) we are so competitive!
Good fun to just run with not too much map reading needed.
Fireworks and free soup.... what better way to spend a saturday night!
Orienteering warm up/down 50:00 [1]
I just put all todays as one otherwise there'd be way to many entries on one day. Lots of stretches and jogging to keep warm and raise the heart rate for the sprints.
My legs hurt so much even though i warmed down as well, must have just been running too fast :p
