Orienteering race 1:09:45 [4] 6.89 mi (10:07 / mi) +200m 9:17 / mi

SoSOL - Calder Wood - Brown course
30 controls was a lot to get through but made fairly steady progress throughout, opting for safer route choices where possible. First error (bad one!) at #7, basically went uphill 90 degrees off line so lost a minute or two. #12 was a bit annoying, knew the reentrant would be tricky to nail from above and just missed it to the right. Gut feeling was that it would be to the left but loads of people below and to the right (boulder on other course!) so wasted time checking right first. Fairly clean all the way from then, sticking to fast path options where possible, though lost valuable time at the last control #30 which I approached contouring just above the river but it was much higher than the circle position suggested. Would have been easy to find from the higher track. OK overall, 5th about 10mins down on Oleg.

Dumyat Hill Race
Have been running quite well so was hoping for a good race. Knew the start would be fast and felt OK though really tipped over the edge in the woods and started to struggle a bit. Took until the final pull to the top to get back into a running rhythm so could definitely have paced it better. Descent was ok but didn't ever feel I was really flying. Overall an ok race and glad to hit sub 40 but was probably hoping for better. Short races are hard! Conditions warm and a few sections of headwind on the climb but could have been worse. Very dry underfoot. Unbelievably big field with 400 entries.

Trail Running 3:00 [2] 0.36 mi (8:20 / mi) +20m 7:07 / mi

Warm down to the car. Gubbed.
