Orienteering race 45:10 [4] 5.5 mi (8:13 / mi)
shoes: VJ Supra
Day 4 Darnaway West.
M50L 7.3km 225m.
Another very late start. Less of an advantage than on Day 2 but still helpful. Took full advantage with a virtually clean run. Just the odd wobble/hesitation. Ran hard all the way knowing the win was just possible.
1st place.

Day 3, Darnaway East.
M50L 4.5km.
Big miss at #4 where i was a bit sloppy attacking and went for a 2 min loop of the bracken. Ended up running with the Swede who started a minute after me. We both missed #13 and very annoyingly #17. Total time loss 3-4 mins. Can't account for the 6 mins behind Jon H and Jon M. 11th place.

Golf at Forres with Bill, Dave H and Arun. 27 Stableford points (15/12). Usual mixed bag. Very enjoyable nevertheless and a course worth a revisit.

Scottish 6 Days day 1. Achagour.
M50L 7.5km 150m.
Early start out of the way. Going well for 6 controls until i caught Nick L (9 mins!) at no.6. Then proceeded to lose concentration on way to #7 and overshot. More time went at #15 and #19. Surprised to see winner (Rob Lee) only 2 mins ahead but guess everyone lost time. 9th.
