JIRCs Relay - Blackheath- Team 4th - 5th on leg

Started off a bit after the top 3 teams with about 4 other teams. Started off well aprt from having a slight wobble at #1 just because of other people on a differnt gaffle but didnt let it put me off. Carried on well until #5 where i got confused on the paths and then got caught up. Was feeling very tired after that and orienteeing just got scrappy. Managed to then regain focus to have a clean rest of the run but should have been quicker.

Overall wasnt too bad of a run and managed to pull up some places so was a good way to finish the weekend.

ahr:172 max:194 spiked:18/22c

JIRCs Individual - Winterfold - 6.6km - 5th

Started of well, just trying to go smoothly through the controls and not have any messes at the start. Went well apart from #4 where i was just a little too far right but managed to adjust quickly.

Then all was smooth up until the timed out road crossing which i just walked through nit taking too much climb, trying to plan a couple of the longer legs in advance. Forgot to properly look at #11 after the road crossing so lost about a minute there faffing around looking for it when i hadn't gone far enough.

Then was all cleaning and was going at a good pace until #20 where i just got confused with where the control actually was as was quite hidden and then couldnt find the run in which wasnt good.

So overall was pretty happy with my run and was a good confidence boost for JEC.

ahr:169 max:204 spiked:15/17c

Got to every control fine but the just either couldnt find them or just ran straight past them! Need to keep my eyes open a bit more. Also wasnt really feeling like running flat out so just kind of took it at a ok pace that i could hold easily.

ahr:169 max:172

5km tempo run from strawberry how out through hundith hill then back round to strawberry how.

Wasnt really pushing the first 1.5 km as much as i could have as didnt know how the legs would be but definitely could have gone faster as felt there was alot left at the end to push on harder which i did.

Times for each km were: 4.35, 4.46, 4.30, 4.02, 3.51

Improved time from last 5km i did in stockholm by at least a minute but could have been faster probably would have been if it was a park run with other people but oh well definitely want to be quicker again by next year!

ahr:171 max:172
