SYO Burbage boulders event. Most fun orienteering I've done in ages. Really good idea to combine ultrasprint type orienteering into a long race and very well planned.

I did one very silly mistake and minced about in surprise view but the rest was ok bar 9 which I undershot and had a bit of hard time through the bracken.

My silly mistake: Punched 14, and for a split second thought I was at 13 so navigated 13-14 again getting very lost in the process, then relocated, found 14 again and carried on, without realising until the finish that I had done this. Lost 4 and a bit minutes just on this one.

Warming up and collecting.

EIS and back.

In the Gym, normal stuff, swapped out some of the upper body stuff for a bit more core.

Lots of steady running, and 2 x (long hill, 2 x medium hill, 2 x short hill) felt ok.
