Orienteering race 46:00 [5] * 8.4 km (5:29 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 9
Summer Series from Briohny's house in Urana St. The run was through the Mt Austin and Turvey Park areas. 30 minutes before the run, it started to RAIN. And it just kept raining right through the run! (still raining now 5 hours later). Also very cool (about 15C compared to the previous 2 weeks when it has been 40+)
Started well and was making good time, picking off controls. Then I ran out of a playground on the south of the map and across what usually is an open field. Today it had 6 inches of water right across it, a result of an overflowing stormwater channel, so shoes got pretty soaked!
A dumb error coming back when I did a 180 (on a Street map!) and ended up going round an extra town block. Cost me a control (ran out of time)and a time penalty.
