ORIENTEERING race 1:57:00 [4] 14.56 km (8:02 / km) +385m 7:06 / km

Very long race. Not my favourite either with lots of tussocks! Still made a good effort although died around 19, just as everyone caught me up including Speakey, RRobinson, Oli, AndyP and the rest... never mind!
Made a hash of number 1 as didn't really make any sense, but got into the map ok. Then was slow over from 8-9-10 but managed to get a bit faster towards 15 until 16 sapped my energy once again.
Nice finish but my blisters on my feet started to kick in on the descent to the last controls.
Nice area, but a little too tough for me at the moment - need to get terrain fitness back - if it were all on tracks, i'd be fine!
