Orienteering race 1:07:18 [5] 8.3 km (8:07 / km) +150m 7:26 / km
shoes: inov8 Mudclaw 272
SYO Regional, Wombwell
thought this would be a quick area so started off quick, of course, I was going to suffer for that later, but this is the pace I've got to work towards, would have slowed more but raced Liam Harrington for 7 controls and Tim Street for 5 (okay, I wasn't exactly racing Tim, but he missed a control and had to pass me a second time)
most of my time lost was when I missed or refused a vague path and got held up in undergrowth (4 - 1min, at least) and at 14 I couldn't see a path junction and flailed through the long grass for 50m, but on the short 8th (30secs), my bearing was maybe 10-15° to the right and didn't see the flag as I passed, (pacing counting saved me)
fell over three or four times, giving my knee a good smashing on the first, always the left knee (why is that?)
9th, under 15mins behind Richard Robinson

been a while since I ventured into Ladygrove ... got in and out pretty fast today and for the first time lasted the distance (the first few times I attempted the route I failed for various feeble physical reasons)

running 36:10 [4] 6.47 km (5:35 / km) +160m 4:58 / km

White Edge
planned to run around the edges in the evening sunshine from Curbar Gap, but a) the cloud swallowed up the sun and spat out a bit of rain, and b) my sister went her own mistaken route up there and we came out at Longshaw, so I got dropped off at Sunday's car park and did a brisk one along White Edge
I say 'brisk' but I was expecting the run to be about 2km longer and could've kept up that pace for that and more
