Orienteering race 1:10:11 [4] 10.48 km (6:42 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212s
S6D day 1. Ok run just a bit slow probably. Swear the map was wrong at 7 as well, mapped as a reentrant in the open and when i found it it was surrounded by trees in the most pathetic reentrant known to man. Miles behind anyway

Event: WOC 2015 & Scottish 6 days
Orienteering 42:22 [4] 5.76 km (7:21 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212s
Lagganlia tour champs in Inshriach. Pre ran the boys course which was 5.2 straight line. 5 I lost 2.30 after stopping too short and being a bit stupid not realising I hadn't crossed a ridge yet. It was enough for Phil to catch me 2 minutes and so ran the rest hard trying to get away. Missed 10 by poor compass out of 9 and ended up on a path running 90° in the wrong direction. Took a moment to realise and correct. Maybe a minute lost. Recaught Phil on the long leg but couldn't get away so he beat me by 1.30. Great fun all the same and ankle was fineish.
Orienteering 20:00 [3] 4.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212s
Fun relays around lagganlia. Smashed it. Thankfully I went to lagganlia last year so I didn't have to dress up and just got to watch the others instead :D

Orienteering 30:00 [3] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212s
Moor of Alvie in the morning. Pre-ran the girls sprint qualifier. Such good fun and clean, new compass worked well. Ankle was actually pretty decent. Still sore on anything uneven but whatever. Running is probably not sensible but I don't care, it's too nice to miss. Hung a couple of flags at badaguish in the afternoon and ran the course as well. Slightly less fun but still good.

Orienteering 1:00:00 [3] 7.0 km (8:34 / km)
Ankle was so much better today, it probably wasnt as bad as I thought it was. Tried some slow jogs at the start and decided I could probably follow one of the slower athletes for some of the course. Did that and it still felt ok so I had a go at a race thing up a couple of hills and it was ok with being steady on the downs. Decided I could run the odds and evens relay too and it went well. It think as soon as I get on to something not so smooth and soft underfoot as Roseisle it might be a bit more difficult to run so I'll see at Moor of Alvie tomorrow.

Note
(injured)
Not done anything today. Ankle is pretty badly swollen still. I've never been injured before and I've no real idea how long it will last or what I should be doing. Basically just iced it and not run. Did a bit of walking around Loch Vaa and I just about kept up with the group. Really quite irritated that I won't be able to do anything at Roseisle tomorrow either. It better be good for the Scottish...
