final 6 days race, nowarm up, to knackered after the weeks work and a late night,heather killed me, walked way to much, not fully concentrating on race either in all honesty, still got around, very slowly.

good run at barry buddon, was a bit to slow till about 10/11 then managed to pick up the past, fitness showing but reckon i would of been much quicker if i'd had a later start being 2nd in the place hadnt tracked up and when walked round later there were roads to each control!! Still really pleased wit navigation no real meck ups

spiked:12/16c shoes: VJ Twisters

brutally physical course in Tullocholsk, did reasonable in the wood, slow but went out with the aim of just orienteering well after the last 2 races, few little mistakes in the circle but satisfying enough, got knackered on rest of course, only other control messed up was 8 after misreading the contours, mayb 13.

spiked:15/21c shoes: VJ Twisters

awful 2nd day, gave up on second part completely knackered and couldn't run in the bracken. Really messed up 2, 5, 9 and 16, just tried old orienteering macro technique but kept losing confidence on route to the control and trying to relocate myself thinking i'd overshot or summa stupid

spiked:9/17c shoes: VJ Twisters

bad run for the first day,hadn't orienteered properly for a month nd it really showed loads of little mistakes and the course was just to physical, also really screwed up 6, decided to relocate when i was about 50m away due to some windblow between me nd control nd ran off few hundred metres.
