Orienteering race (Aus Long Champs) 1:10:30 [4] 10.7 km (6:35 / km)
(sick)
Had a comfortable, clean race on a pretty open map with clusters of rock detail. Had last start with Laura then Aislinn in front of me. Caught sight of them at #4 before catching at #6 and passing to #8. Did well in not pushing myself faster just to get away, just concentrated on keeping my own pace. Pulled away on the long leg 8-9 where I went left to the fast running gully. Spotted Krystal, Bridget and Clare at #9, and Mary at #11, then was on my lonesome for the rest.
Not the best route to #14 as I opted for the open gully again, where as to the right should have been a bit faster.
Started feeling really rough towards the end, so eased off a fair bit physically knowing I just had to keep it clean to take the win. Which I did, happily :)
A couple of misses in the circles, and that one route choice, but overall happy with the performance.
Felt pretty fine cold-wise while running, but felt it like anything afterwards.

Running 38:00 [3] 7.0 km (5:26 / km)
Went for a jog to see if I was capable of breathing while running, and if racing tomorrow was even a possibility.
Made it up the hills to kings park still alive so cruised around the sandy tracks and back to the apartment.

Orienteering 12:33 [4]
Aus sprint champs.
Very tight race with Laura, never more than 10s apart. Going to have to lift my game! ;)
Very rusty the whole way around. a couple of decidedly not optimal routes (not helped by larger than marked construction), a small buggy that kept stopping right in front of me, and just slow reactions in general.
Once again lucky that Laura missed the last control as much (and a little more) than me, or she'd have had the win!

Orienteering race 34:00 [3]
Aus Middle Champs.
Great fun, technically not too difficult. A couple of slips in areas where I couldn't read the map on the run for fear of breaking my ankle on all the little rocks on the ground. Should have stopped (duh).
And the 3rd to last control, where I visited all the wrong rock clusters in the high undergrowth, before finally finding mine on the last one.
Laura only 30s behind... Very lucky she messed up the same controls as me!
