11 AM
Running warm up/down 8:30 [3] 1.0 mi (8:30 / mi)
Not this first time there has been no designated warm up area at a major event
Ran out the way we drove in but clear I shouldn't go past start, so laps of the car park it was, and I was far from the only one
Wouldn't pass the risk assessment I think
Why is this overlooked so often?

Urban Orienteering 14:10 [5] 2.1 mi (6:45 / mi)
One mistake but a very costly, and silly, one
Otherwise superb, would have been through comfortably, albeit in the weakest heat it seems
But the elite guys don't make mistakes

12 PM
Running warm up/down 17:00 [3] 2.0 mi (8:30 / mi)
Warm down, then back up. Car park tedium.
2 PM
Urban Orienteering race 13:19 [5] 1.8 mi (7:24 / mi)
B final, 11th
A lot of fastest splits (11)
and a few mistakes
#7 - exited and expected to see control, so ran to 1st control I saw, which was closer to 2 than 7
#10 - hesitated as wasn't sure if could cross ditch, so stopped to check. then tiptoed over it
#21 - wrong side of wall, tried desprately to figure out on way but failed
#26 - punched control on first tree out of woods. Luckily, somehow, something told me this wasn't right and checked control number, continued to correct one
Mistakes are getting fewer I guess is the good news, bad news is I still make big ones at times
