orienteering race 40:00 [5]
DNC, Perwinnes Moss (north of Aberdeen). Not inspired by area - gorse and tussocks, but course well planned and I enjoyed it far more than anticipated. After missing first control - ca 40 secs and 3rd - tried to cut across rather than run round - I took things safe and careful, round paths where possible and safe routes into controls. Plenty of hesitations but no errors after that. Head light kept flickering - warning of low battery, but still had 3 of 4 bars illuminated at end... need to investigate!
Nightmare drive - 80 mins to get there, 20 mins lost in one jam and 5 at a set of lights. Crap to drive across town at 6pm!
