Orienteering (Scottish 6 Days) 1:32:58 [3] 6.22 km (14:57 / km) +280m 12:12 / km
Glen Affric again, but the 'better' part apparently. Some people seemed to like it but personally did not. Was fed up half way round so decided to just go for a run and find some nicer forest instead of the tussock-y open that I was in, as the description of the day said "mostly runnable"?!
Anyway couldn't find any going through the whole area so just went back. 6.22km in 1.5 hours... seems a bit stupid to be honest, could have just gone for a decent run on a nice path.

Orienteering (Scottish 6 Day) 1:40:50 [3] 7.7 km (13:06 / km) +300m 10:58 / km
Retired. Not really enjoying it/fully engaged and wanted to watch the World Champs. Seemed a bit of a flop to retire, but doesn't make much difference to me when I didn't care about my result anyway, so seemed to make logical sense and got to see the final guys come in on the Long.

Fun! Nice forest, nice course, v quick. Can't orienteer fast enough to run any faster though so still a slow time but felt fit physically. Made some silly mistakes but nothing drastic.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
Actually did a proper warm up with drills whattttttt?!

20c
Actual course: 5.3km, 115m
LOVED IT! Great forest, great course, finally been reminded why Orienteering is a great/worthwhile sport. Also do love a good middle race! Nice and runnable, although because my orienteering is so slow now was not able to run as fast as I could have but such is life. A few mistakes and still not exactly good result but don't care, was v enjoyable.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [2]
Orienteering race 1:44:56 [4] *** 8.26 km (12:42 / km) +330m 10:35 / km
21c
Actual course: 6.8km, 280m
Absolutely hated it. Yesterday I just had a strop so was slow so my own fault, but today was just ridiculous, why on earth that area was used I have no idea, hands down the worst/most horrible I have ever been on unfortunately. Literally no part of it was nice, I battled through the first 9 thinking it would be better from there and it barely was, a total waste of the day.
Also huge disadvantage starting early apparently it was hugely tracked up and easier running later on.
Not feeling very positive but more disbelief today as to why on earth anyone thought the area could be enjoyable! Bad times, looking forward to the middle!
