A very wet day but the temperature was quite warm so I went out with just an O top. I went around the first section in Mytchett without an problems other than helping Jev relocate for #8. Maybe I shouldn't have as he beat me by 2 mins. Oh and after letting a MTB past me, I fell over and they didn't even ask how I was. Big hole in hand and knee now. Fortunately I have a memory of an elephant so revenge will be sweet.
I went onto Ash Ranges and made a parallel error going into the wrong re-entrant. A few others came with me and I couldn't believe how bad the error was as I was sure my bearing in open ground was good. Also #26 was bad as the ground didn't fit the map and I was on the wrong hill along with another runner. Back at the end I spoke to a few others who had made the mistake too and Colin agreed the map was scewed. Looking at the map I have from 1999, the area to the south of the track was further West so explains both mistakes.
My route choice to #18 wasn't the best costing about a min after going too far east at the start of the leg.
The final part on Mytchett was just slow as my hamstrings and hip flexors were complaining.
Overall a great day out on a well planned course!!!
I actually ran 19.48km.

11 AM

running warm up/down 5:00 [1] 1.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Salomon speed cross 3

Orienteering race 56:37 [5] 8.7 km (6:30 / km) +290m 5:35 / km
shoes: Salomon speed cross 3

Legs were pretty battered from the start the the first half of the course seeded to take us up and down most of the hills on the area.
I caught Ludovic up at #7 of which I didn't take a direct enough route. I couldn't shake him so he was on may tail until the road crossing. After letting him go first, he veered right at #22 and I stupidly went with him. We must have been close to it to start with but dropped time searching the wrong way.
After that I was clean except a route choice to #25.
Another nice day out in the woods. Ran 9.45km.
