orienteering 1:12:00 [4]
bogesundslandet, or some such, training with andrewQ and henrik a swede who went to o-school once upon a time... so he was good.
one map - took turns reading... bareback cos i forgot my o-top...
kayaked across the sea from andrew's place in Boson with pete. and back again after. Stockholm is fantastic, good upper body training.

training with kot/kth
got lost by the pack around the first control... went off on my own then cos i didn't understand the instructions... probably an hour's running in there... nothing too difficult navigationally.

orienteering 42:00 [5] 6.0 km (7:00 / km) +230m 5:52 / km
Beautiful, Coumshingaun in the Comeraghs. Coum being a tarn or corrie or whatever.
open mountain, grass rather than heather, loads of rock features, old map a little dodgy but excellent orienteering.
Couple of small mistakes. Not particularly fast.

orienteering 40:00 [5] 6.53 km (6:08 / km) +160m 5:27 / km
Irish Relays, first leg. First one back (37:36), beating BO'B, but JL had an extra 700m and was only 20 seconds back. On my own after fourth control (although i felt bo'b breathing down my neck a couple of times). Yellow Course standard. rain again. left calf still v tight. left rear knee tendon weak after yesterday's beating.

orienteering 1:21:27 [5] 10.0 km (8:09 / km) +430m 6:42 / km
Irish Champs in the beautiful Silent Valley in the Mourne Mountains. Pity the mist was down and the wind was up and the rain was cold. Still wonderful, esp after the prev 2 weeks.
8th place. winner was under 74, 4 secs ahead of second. AQ 81:31. Niall 80:01.
Two 1-minute mistakes, very sloppy in and around the circle (consistently!). Still, lost a lot of time through fitness on the less technical last third.
Top 5 are all over 35... not retiring yet, obviously.
