Orienteering 1:02:46 [0] 5.84 mi (10:45 / mi) +294m 9:18 / mi
shoes: VJ Irock 2
West Midlands Champs in Telford Park.
Moved from Ercall because of lack of permissions.
So basically an urban/Park event.
Concentrated on the nav for this one. Regardless of speed. Still struggle in the control circle. Especially amongst vegetation.
After years of ignoring control descriptions and symbols guess I should now learn what they all mean as I ended up running back and forth over the first bridge before I saw Kirsten go straight under and nail it. A brief glance at the description after and it became obvious.
Basically ended up following her for the rest of it despite trying to lose her on the paths. She would go straight to the controls as I was still fumbling about then I'd run ahead again.
Win on M40. First time for everything. Felt very slow if I'm honest. http://html.wrekinorienteers.co.uk/WM%20Champs%202...
