Event: NGOC League 1
11 AM
Orienteering race (NGOC Cooper's Hill) 1:00:47 [3] 6.98 km (8:42 / km) +330m 7:03 / km
slept:4.0 weight:72kg shoes: inov8 Mudclaw300 Blk/Gn1
NGOC League at Cooper's Hill. 6.1km blue.
Really would rather have gone up mountains today and enjoyed the snow but was very cold at home all day yesterday so wasn't keen on the windchill. Still Cooper's Hill is quite nice, and a few other things to do whilst over here to justify the trip.
Navigation all pretty straight forward. Only time loss for nav on 14 as went bit far south looking for a possible way up.
Other time losses - 1min-90s due to out of control dog on S-1 and again at 3. Had to stop at least 6 times in total. 3 mins on vertical descent into 9. Didn't like it - deep leaves offering no grip and hiding things to catch feet. 45s(?) on 14. Found finish before 22, but time was reasonable.
Felt like a lot of controls for the distance today.

Post orienteering loop of west half of Sheepscombe map. Didn't have OS map with me so had to guess the way back from Ebworth Centre - wasn't the route I planned but did get me back. Woods looking good.

Jogging the one bit of CWR Leg 4 I'd not done before. Amazed they are allowed a race crossing the road here - had two minute wait first time, second time had more sympathetic drivers. Very windy up here, sticky mud - and definitely tiring legs when fighting both. Could see snow on the ridge behind Longtown.
