Orienteering race (Ultrasprint) 8:53 [4] *** 1.21 km (7:20 / km) +49m 6:06 / km
spiked:27/27c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
Took it steady to avoid any mistakes and get a feel for the area. Got round without any trouble, and would have probably taken 60-90 seconds off if it hadn't been the first run.
Orienteering race (Ultrasprint) 7:40 [5] *** 1.26 km (6:05 / km) +39m 5:16 / km
spiked:24/24c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
Absolutely smashed this one at full pelt, fantastic run.
Orienteering race (Ultrasprint) 7:59 [4] *** 1.2 km (6:39 / km) +31m 5:54 / km
spiked:21/22c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
Didn't do quite as well on this one, got bearings slightly wrong on #1 and had to punch another nearby one to make sure. Could have taken a slightly quicker route to #6 and lost concentration at #13, accidentally also punching #15, before going back to it. Slightly surprised my time was as quick as it was in the end.
Orienteering race (Ultrasprint) 10:43 [5] *** 1.62 km (6:37 / km) +35m 5:58 / km
spiked:28/29c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
Absolute chaos with starts every 15 seconds and people everywhere! Got slowed down in the maze due to the sheer number of people trying to punch, stumbled across #4 by luck during a slight lapse in concentration. Then got ahead of myself going into the maze for the second time and went to #17 before #16, losing about 30 seconds. Legs gave up coming up the hill near the end, but still posted a good time (20/46 on the course, unusually high for me!). Great run to end a cracking event and weekend.

Orienteering race (London City Race) 1:22:19 [5] *** 11.76 km (7:00 / km) +60m 6:50 / km
spiked:24/25c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
Excellent course within a tricky area in places. Lost a bit of time on #1 trying to find a way in to the control, but no real errors on the rest of the course and round in a very good pace and time. Slowed a little towards the end as my legs were very tired, but loved the course.

Orienteering race 40:53 [4] **** 5.78 km (7:04 / km) +35m 6:52 / km
spiked:22/24c shoes: Nike Air Relentless
A multi-level sprint was always going to be challenging, especially when run at night. Got off to a good start and got the hang of it straight away, but maybe got a bit complacent and made a couple of 'wrong level' errors at #13 and #14. Got it back together without losing too much time, on a brilliant course.

Orienteering (TBGS Training) 48:03 [4] *** 5.48 km (8:46 / km) +140m 7:47 / km
spiked:14/15c shoes: Inov8 Mudclaws
Nice little run round a fun area, nav was fine apart from #12 where I went too far down the hill. Good pace as well.
