9 AM
Orienteering race 17:16 2.79 km (6:11 / km) +53m 5:39 / km
ahr:139 max:155 shoes: Brooks Glycerin 17 Black 2
Sprint qualifier at Benowa State School and St Kevin's.
Minimal warm up because it was raining and it was too painful to do more.
Very stop/start because I struggle to read the 1:4000 map. Long wait at the road crossing and almost forgot to punch the control after the crossing. Long way around on 13 because I couldn't see the gap between the building and fence the other way. No real issues, just very slow to read the map and then it doesn't feel worth trying to push hard physically, particularly when it hurts so much. Pretty close to last.

ahr:148 max:158 shoes: Brooks Glycerin 17 Black 2
Sprint final at Griffith Uni.
Usual short slow painful warm up. Grass was slightly less painful but tried to do more on the track to get used to it.
Enjoyed this race a bit more. Longer legs gave a bit more time to get up to speed and feel as though I was racing a bit. Didn't have any major problems but did miss a couple of faster routes. Biggest error was on 9, after the spectator control, where I thought there was a gap in the garden at the control and then went the long way around. Happy enough with my run but still over a minute behind Liam.
