Orienteering race 45:25 [3] *** 5.2 km (8:44 / km) +180m 7:27 / km
17c shoes: VJ Falcon
Nice course, with some variety from the usual fare at this venue. Weather better than forecast, but still quite muddy on large paths.
Crocked R ankle (twice) about 2/3 way round course. Didn't seem too bad (saved by ankle tape), so pressed on, but with less enthusiasm.
Damn! Re-assess short term priority as Southern Night Champs, so scrub Hindhead Common (was looking forward to it, but too soon and most likely V physical).

Orienteering 55:15 [3] * 1.4 km (39:28 / km) +80m 30:42 / km
8c (injured) shoes: VJ Falcon
E enjoyed dibbing the controls. Ben walked/ran distance quite well. Collected several sticks and enjoyed the terrain. Struggled at one point to get the pushchair over a stream, luckily help arrived just at the right time (thanks if you are reading this!). Nearly tipped E out of the chair at No. 1 when it well sideways - luckily the paths got easier as the course went on.

Cycling (Commute) 8:00 [3] 1.6 mi (5:00 / mi)
Crossing clear and relatively straight run, save for a few traffic lights. Mildly annoyed by another cyclist persistently ignoring the red traffic lights! Dull conditions, but light enough not to need lights.

Magpie Wood, Northgate, Memorial Park, Railway Footbridge, HR level Xing, Albany Rd, Princes Rd., Ewhurst Rd, W Green Park, Back in via side entrance (A23) turnstile. Slight chill to start, but otherwise ideal running conditions. 10 min laster starting than normal and saw lots of other people out running near the Ind Est. Still feeling generally tired, but a fairly good session of even paced running.

Note
2 hours walking through terrain checking controls prior to event.
Several hours worrying that I'd missed something or something else would go wrong, then relieved soon after 14:00 that all competitors safely in.
Weather-wise was a fantastic day (though very muddy under foot).
Event seem to be enjoyed by most.
