More open than a typical campus map. Curved roads increase the intensity. #8 - Wrong building (-1'). #10 - Got caught out with OOB tape on N side and had to run around to S side to access the cp (-50"). #18/19 - On a fairly good run until I skipped 18 and had to do 19 again (-2').

Orienteering race (QBIII LD / SL6) 1:27:59 *** 7.8 km (11:16 / km) +294m 9:29 / km
ahr:143 max:169 spiked:7/9c rhr:65 slept:7.1 weight:66.5kg shoes: Salomon Speedcross4 GTX (blue)
"Barraba Lane", Quorrobolong. M60A / Hard 5: 5.4km, +210m, 8c. 9th/11 (44:19 behind Ian Prosser ACT). 16°C. TE 3.4.
Definitely a runners' course today with just 8c across the 5km+ red-line distance. I was going OK (3rd) until I lost massive time on #5.
#1 (1.88km) - Headed straight to the road like most of the earlier starters I could see. 550m slightly uphill road run into a 900m trail. Followed track parallel to WC before traversing to boulder. #2 - Counting 5 WCs as I contoured across before climbing to the boulders. #3 - Descending after 2 WC crossings. Wrong side of boulder (-1:45). #4 - Back to the main track. Compass after crossing WC. #5 - Back to track and onto road again. Turned into track 350m before the start ∆. Planned to contour to track leading up to #5 but ended up one gully short. Didn't see anyone for 15'. Walked W to the correct gully but entered too high. Lost time looking in an area that had a similar large boulder near the WC (-24'). #6 - Tracks. #7 - Followed track to bend then compass. #8 - Followed WC. #F - Up to finish track. Total est time lost: 25:45.
Best leg: #1 (3rd/11). Best pos: 3rd (#1-4).

Freemans Waterhole. Limited parking at today's O event. We were offered a shuttle bus service to/from a parking area about 3.5km from the east. I thought I could get in and out quicker by parking near the main FW roundabout at cycling 1.5km from the west. 16°C.

Ended up one gully too far right (lost 40"). #11 - Straight. #12 - Didn't run far enough and ended up one gully short and too high (-2:15). #13 - Straight. #F - Angled into track for final sprint.

Note
slept:6.1 weight:66.5kg (rest day)
Rain (snowing in Orange according to our colleagues over there). Supposedly the coldest day in Sydney for 37 years. I was still living in Canberra in 1984 so 10.3° is not really that exciting. On the way home on the train I managed to complete a 'diabolical' level Sudoku between Strathfield and Thornleigh.

ahr:137 max:157 rhr:74 slept:5.95 weight:66kg shoes: Giant XTC Adv 29er 2 (grey)
Fleecy top without leggings. Trails softer after overnight rain but not really wet. Came across a few elderly walkers returning from the lookout. I called out "bike" as I slowed my approach and they shuffled to the sides to let me go through the middle. One of them said I should have used my bell as if that would have been more effective. 11°C. TE 3.0.
