Orienteering race 1:00:51 [4] 7.22 km (8:26 / km)
Yorkshire Hill - M50 (Course 8)
Complex mining which demanded respect and 100% concentration. Steady throught the first 8 then lost contact going to #9 which was a depression in thicker bush and had to relocate off the hill to the south. David Poland caught me here and we ran together to #17 from where he took the direct, and ultimately quicker, route to #18 whereas I contoured round to the S. Another mistake on #19 where I was looking off the wrong corner of the clearing and again at #20 which was another depression in a vague area in the middle of some green. Ok from there to the finish.

Event: Easter 2013
1 PM
Orienteering race (Easter prologue) 25:23 [4] 4.39 km (5:47 / km)
La Trobe University campus - Long course (same as Men's Elite).
Given how my back had been the plan was to take it reasonably steady. 6 of the first 8 controls were in the bush which make for a very different expeience. No real time loses but generally slow and sluggish, would have hoped for better if I had been fully fit, as it was I was just over 2 minutes behingd the open winner.
