orienteering race 1:01:22 [5] 8.5 km (7:13 / km) +340m 6:01 / km
CS Cup final, Helsington Barrows, Short Brown.
I felt I was going fairly well until about 2/3 of the way round, a small hesitation before #1 and a bit of a wandering route to #10 being the only time lost. I really felt I died on the climb up to #16 and struggled from there, but actually picked up places on #16, #17, #18. I lost them all again though, slipping from 24th to 31st on the loop after the spectator control. Most of it was lost at #21 - couldn't see a knoll, ran round in a circle and came back to the same place but this time I could see a control. Still not much of a knoll. Then lost 2 places on the run-in.
My legs felt completely dead from about #15 onwards, trying to run too fast before that.
