Note
I have made an appointment on Tuesday with podiatrist to see if i can find out which shoes are best for road/trail running.
I don't want to spend $100-250 on shoes which hurt my feet.

Orienteering race (SummerSeries 6) 47:19 [5] 8.54 km (5:32 / km) +142m 5:07 / km
ahr:167 max:177 shoes: New Balance MT411GB
ran ok, didn't feel as good as monday (legs were a bit sore) but pushed up almost all the hills
had to get home early so didn't have time to bag 600, 460-30 late = 430
probably should have skipped 10/12/24/23 and gone for 30/23/11 ..
I guess I need more practice at getting in just before 45mins.
considered cutting across bush for 22-21 and to cut the corner at the finish near 20.. but didn't have the balls ...
definitely feeling much fitter than this time last year :D

Orienteering race (West Summer Series 3) 46:15 [5] 8.89 km (5:12 / km) +100m 4:56 / km
ahr:172 max:182 shoes: New Balance MT411GB
turned up just just before starting closed to pay my fee, started about 8 mins late)
had a shocker of a day at work - stayed up till 4am to build a new database server for students with assignments due ..
first run for 10 days .. been too busy
ran well .. uphill finish was the first thing i noticed with the course .. but also many route options and difficult to find an obvious route.
last control may have been picked up, or I may have not seen it, but since it would have been about 5 mins after course closure time I probably didn't deserve those 10 points ..
520 - 20 late - 10 missed control = 490, I think next best was 480
