Running warm up/down 1:04:03 [3] 9.18 km (6:59 / km)

Total for the day at Glasgow Parks.
Despite the rare occurrence of having actually been out in town last night I felt better running today than yesterday. I think I put more pressure on myself mentally than I thought which probably contributed to the flat feeling and sub standard performance yesterday. I've felt so much better almost relieved since I did the xc race. Something I really need to work on.
Orienteering race 11:42 [4] 1.96 km (5:58 / km)
Park 1 Drumpellier (1.6km). Forest sprint, tactic should have been point the compass and go as nothing was far apart. I did not use my compass and tried to go fast. At least I got past the first control without a mistake unlike last year. Poor show by me though.
Orienteering race 11:51 [5] 2.57 km (4:37 / km)
shoes: Saucony Peregrine 4
Park 2 Tollcross (2.25km) My kind of park...hard run and good fun.
Orienteering race 25:42 [4] 4.79 km (5:22 / km)

Park 3 Pollock chasing start (4.25km). Had over a minute lead. First three just a run so went out hard then relaxed around trickier bit. Didn't pick the best route on 4 and wee miss at 5 but generally happy and was able to enjoy last bit to take the overall win. Last race for a bit which is probably good as I'm too good at putting unnecessary pressure on myself!
