orienteering race 1:11:00 [5]
British Champs M55 Highdam. 1st (second TT +63 seconds).
Well I didn't expect that! At the start of the week I was wondering if I should bother travelling...
Anyway, aim was same as at BOC in Callaly - "Think strong" so I just tried to push where I could and not get too worried about walking up hills. Never felt I was running particularly fast (apart from down hill to second-last control). Best technical run in the Lakes ever for me, hesitant at number 2, bad line 10-11 (and then couldn't see the control from 2m away (tucked into a crack between 2 rocks!) and wobbly to 14. Probably 90-100 seconds in total.
Dead chuffed :-)
steady run warm up/down 30:00 [3]
Long warm-up and some drills, strides, stretching.
