orienteering 19:32 [3] 3.34 km (5:51 / km) +41m 5:31 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212 (#6 Fluro)
Day 3 sprint Charles Sturt Uni. 3rd.
By a fluke of the start draw, positions 1,2,3 on our class were starting consecutively, Tony holding about 5 minutes of lead over me with Ian about 10 seconds behind me.
Knee v sore, but figured I could get through a couple of km.
Epic start to the course with a bunch of short legs on a granite covered hill - felt constantly on the edge, but hit them all without nailing them (no time to assimilate descriptions). Was chuffed to catch Tony "the wind" Wollford at the transition to campus and ran with him for about 4 controls before choosing a really, really dumb route (lose 90 seconds). One more dumb route and one stop dead before eventually crossing a garden mapped as rough open or car park or whatever yellow/brown is.
Happily held off Ian, but staying with Tony would have given me the win today.
