Travel home from Sweden, then mountain bike ride with Pippa, on bridleways and minor roads in Northumberland. Lovely scenery, and nice in a way to be back in a country with cooler temperatures (high teens rather than high twenties!).

O-Ringen Day 5. Chasing start. Started in 11th position, with runners ahead at about 20s, 1min, 3min. Caught first two early on, we dropped the guy two ahead at #3, ran with the guy just ahead till #11, then we took different routes on a long leg. Turned out his was faster, but he was also significantly faster on a later split uphill where I was feeling dead, so I think he'd have beaten me in the end anyway. Somewhere I passed the person three ahead without knowing it. So gained two places to finish 9th. My original goal had been top 6, but that was without really having any idea how tough the opposition was, so in the end I was fairly happy with top 10. If I hadn't made big mistakes earlier in the week I could at least have been one place higher, but there was a big gap above that.

O-Ringen Day 4. Another big mistake at number #3. 6 mins lost? Terrible. Rest of course was ok, and to be honest I was surprised not to be lower down. 14th.

O-Ringen Day 3. Middle distance on sand dune area. 2nd place - really pleased. Just orienteering really cleanly, didn't rush it, and pushed a little harder near the end (just as well, 3rd was 1s behind, and 4th another 3s behind that).

O-Ringen Day 2. Another big mistake, confused by some recent forest thinning, 3 mins. Otherwise good. Felt like I was running a bit harder than yesterday (getting more used to the heat), so a bit disappointed to finish a bit lower. 14th.

Cycling 13:08 [3] 5.54 km (2:22 / km) +7m 2:21 / km

Cycling back from event center (where I'd got the bus from) to home.
