Orienteering race 49:38 [5] 8.29 km (5:59 / km) +173m 5:25 / km
shoes: VJ Integrators
SOC Highland Water Blue course, 7.3km / 145m. Very wet - standing water everywhere, but fine, just accepted I would get soaked.
Good run. started as fast as i could, as I seem to be a slow starter in recent "big" races. Route out of 2 not great, 30secs, Matthew P. went south & was quicker. No 6 tricky - lucky not to lose time here, and 7 very tricky - left no. 6 too far north & ended up in wrong block of "wood". Luckily heard road nearby & so lost maybe 45 secs.
Let rip from there, as only a Blue. (no Brown). Did a "Tett" in the rivers - you're gonna get wet, just dive in! Strange ditches & unmapped paths etc near the end, & again lucky not to lose time, but a v good run for me overall & pleased. Certainly felt fresh after an easy week.
Result - what, second place?
