Run race ((orienteering)) 16:09 [4] *** 2.9 km (5:34 / km)
spiked:18/19c
Victorian Sprint Championships, 6th. At Haileybury College in Keysborough, a reasonably conventional campus-style area with some complex buildings in three sections interspersed with flat open sections across ovals. Thought the area might be a bit small but it was just big enough to contain the course - you really need a school with both a junior and senior campus (as Haileybury has) to get enough area on school grounds.
Put in a decent effort suggesting that things are continuing to improve a bit - haven't been as close as 1.30 to the front of a sprint for a while (although I don't think Bryan had a brilliant run). Only one very slight wobble, on 6, and that was only worth a few seconds. Clearly I was running at the same speed as Eddie - at no point after #5 were we separated by more than 3 seconds (his eventual margin over me). Jim was also very close to us before a late time loss - indeed as of #13 there was a four-way dead-heat featuring the three of us and Matt Schepisi.
After the run (with a brief detour via a well-known Swedish business to get some lunch) it was on to a review session of the Victorian ALP environment policy committee (much of which consisted of replacing statements in policy documents which said that in its fourth term the Brumby Government will do X). I got there just in time to deal with the section on human interactions with stock and domestic animals (not the sort of interactions that certain ACT-based football teams have been known to get involved in).
