Orienteering race 1:20:32 [5] ***** 12.9 km (6:15 / km) +332m 5:32 / km
ahr:175 max:186 shoes: Inov8 Roclite 295
IOC, Classic, Magilligan
Felt good at the start line, had an idea what way to go to the 1st since I saw Bill start. Picked up the map and went, but didn't hit 1 spot on, was standing right next to it but it was hard to see. 2 and 3 were fine, and lost a small bit of time at 4, too far left, thought I might have run too far but worked out ok. 5 was easy, run to fence, cross over and follow it along. Went out onto beach to 6 and cut back in early, and knew where I was. On the long leg to 8 I ran hard but ended up too far north, so lost some time. 9-11 were again easy. Took the easy option on the long leg to 12, back the route to 7 then in off a re-entrant. Felt tired at the water station and took my energy gel before the water, then across the road to find a big pond blocking my route to 13. Didn't run as fast as I would like here. 14 as easy and the long leg to 15 was easier again. Made a mistake to 16, ended up in the big depression to the right of the one I wanted to be in but thought I was right, relocated and then got it, lost most time at this control. The rest of the course was straight forward.
10th overall. I'm happy with the time I ran rather than the position, would have obviously have liked to have been higher, but time behind winner is much better than last year.
Garmin says I covered 14.83km.
