Orienteering race 44:08 [5] *** 9.1 km (4:51 / km)
spiked:24/28c shoes: Brooks Pure Cadence
SSS 5 at Lane Cove
Good course with lots of tracks and hills. Plenty of starting options.
Was a bit scratchy in the bush:
- 5 I hesitated a lot going along the track from 30, including the taped off section (40s).
- 25 lost the track near the scout hall (15s)
- 10 overran it + silly slow route choice scrambling up thru the bush (40secs).
- 24 bit hesitant and going around the base of the cliff.
My route: 2-12-30-5-28-3-13-14-20-25-21-7-22-10-17-29 then ran with Andy for the southern loop -9-27-26-24-15-6-4-8-23-11-1.
I omitted 19 and left 18 as a maybe out and back at the end... but ran out of time. Even with a clean run (2mins more up my sleeve) 18 would've been a gamble with the traffic light crossing twice.
Scored 560 in 44:08. Ondrej & Andy 570 with slightly different routes.
