Orienteering race 1:00:39 [3] 4.3 km (14:06 / km) +210m 11:20 / km
Day 5 - La Campane (Narbonne)
Actually the worst area I have ever been to in my entire life (and coming from ebor that is saying something!). Why anyone would map this is beyond me. Was essentially an entire map of knee high spikey undergrowth with no route choice but straight through it for the majority of the course. Hating life the whole way! Also there was a really weird man doing a headstand in the forest.

Orienteering race 1:31:21 [3] 6.5 km (14:03 / km) +195m 12:13 / km
Day 4 - Conilhac-Montbrun (Montbrun des Corbières)
Mega hard and mega boiling - moved from the pyrenees down to the 36 degree coast. Somehow had my best race of the week - round the paths, avoid the terrain was pretty much the plan! Spent about 5 mins stuck in a spikey bush on my way to 5, and had a bit of a mare down the slope at 10 & 11. Also took a massive detour just to re-pass the drinks point again.
Apart from the mank terrain I actually quite enjoyed having to be more disciplined and accurate and slow with the map reading. Only 5mins down on Bodil Holmstrom which I would class as a success :)

Day 3 - La Quillane
Loved this area, and got better again :) Read the contours well at a pace I could manage to map read at. Also the only day I ever broke 10 min/km's haha.
