Orienteering - Urban race (Belvoir Park Estate) 14:38 [5] 3.73 km (3:55 / km) +17m 3:50 / km
ahr:127 max:148 shoes: On Cloudace
Mass start, gaffled. 5th.
Wrong choice at start trying to be fast rather than detailed enough, and that pattern continued, missed a lot of cut throughs. Lost 20s on 7 and 10 more on 9 which took me out of contention for 3rd (probably where I should've been on paper) although not much shame in losing to the 2 GB girls in 3rd and 4th.
Good fun.
I think the shoe designer probably put too much effort into making then look good and not enough into making them the same shape as feet.

Great fun. I did terribly.
I've never seen 'please wash hands after finishing' on a map before!

Orienteering - Urban race (Louth) 37:17 [5] 8.51 km (4:23 / km) +38m 4:17 / km
ahr:114 max:133 shoes: On Cloudace
Good event, longer than I expected for a middle distance although times are about right. A few choices that are probably 50:50 that I didn't faff over, but 24 missed the best route and lost a bit of time. Saw the trap which caught out pretty much every one on any course that I've spoken to :)
Mistake on 6 where I stopped 50m away from the control and was confused, having oversimplified due to focusing on the thick black lines to the detriment of everything else.otherwise good.
Shoes growing on me a bit.
