Running (Warm up/ down) 15:00 [2] 1.5 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: VJ IROC O-shoes

Orienteering race (Hindleap Warren) 1:10:31 [5] 10.89 km (6:29 / km) +325m 5:38 / km
shoes: VJ IROC O-shoes

Good run overall, although it didn't feel particularly quick at the time. Still struggling with my calves going up long slopes (e.g. #8, #13, #23). A couple of small errors:
- #4: was trying to avoid running along the out-of-bounds road, so went into the forest too early without a clear attackpoint... sloppy messing around on the way to the control... I think the route was poor in general
- #17: slipped a little too low onto the knoll below
- #22: crossed on to the wrong valley, but realised straight away

Overall very happy with the result, 3rd place from 30 in what was quite a strong field (I reckon I rank around 8th in it). Maybe I wasn't noticing that I was running faster than usual?

Looking back the next evening at my route: with the exception of #4 and #18, where I did not have a good attackpoint I was very accurate in and out of controls. Not really making any mistakes in the circle. Probably a knock on from the night-O where I've had to focus on AP, handrails and stoppers more.
