Running warm up/down 20:00 [3] 2.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: Icebug Accelerites

Orienteering race (Pwll Dhu VHI) 1:12:37 [4] 7.85 mi (9:15 / mi)
shoes: Icebug Accelerites

Mistake early on and caught by Mark Saunders (local) should just have tagged on but as usual didn't and lost contact going to 11 resulting in having to come back out to relocate loosing lots of time. Steady from there to finish.
Good area and courses.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [3] 2.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: Ice Bugs

Orienteering race (Dunachtonmore SOL) 57:30 [4] 7.4 km (7:46 / km)
shoes: Ice Bugs

Not 100% so surprised to be still on the pace with the old men until 10. When I slowed down in the technical bit my glasses misted over, couldn't read the map, couldn't see the features, couldn't see where I was putting my feet. Glasses off usually works in urbans as I can read the map without them and don't need to see too much roundabout (apart from traffic!). Stumbled about getting very frustrated and lost lots of time until I could escape (and the rain eased off).
I need a solution for this. What do others who wear glasses do? I probably need more ventilation as I wear sports glasses which are quite enclosed.
Really can see nothing when they steam up and vision is pretty poor without them. Can't read the map with my contact lenses now.
Wasted 300 mile round trip.
Correction: Not wasted as I found a problem and will find a solution.
