Orienteering race 25:36 *** 4.95 km (5:10 / km) +65m 4:51 / km
ahr:178 max:209 spiked:25/30c shoes: New Balance MR1080BW v2.1
LOK Primrose Hill
A great event from LOK this evening - really good, detailed ISSOM map of Primrose Hill, showing every tree as promised. An amazing effort by David Rosen - worth mentioning by name!
Slightly disappointed with my performance, more for missing a couple of very small control features which cost me a lot of time, particularly as two of them fell consecutively and I forgot that they might be the same. Those two cost me over 90 seconds - my race pace was about twice what it was for the rest of the race.
OK running, although it was very warm and as PaulC pointed out, I need to do some hill work. So true.
Race pace was 5:42, markedly slower than last week at Danson Park, and over-run was exactly 10% - very low. 22nd out 85 finishers - would hope to do better.
Very surprised and disappointed to see Paul C's disqualification for a mispunch at a control, particularly with such a quick time.

Good grief I'm hungry today. Legs are surprisingly flexible.

Pace down a long way because of:
Pace down a long way because of:
- a diversion into a packed Waterloo full of delays;
- a Thames path swamped by lawyers walking abreast the "wrong way";
- stopping to check the route; and
- being tired from the run in this morning.

Richmond Park opposing laps
A fastest time, but only by a minute. I should expect better with the aero bars, but two reasons:
A fastest time, but only by a minute. I should expect better with the aero bars, but two reasons:
- I forgot to switch my Garmin to auto-pause for cycling; and
- I'm suffering from a late night last night.
