Orienteering 1:28:54 [4] 12.68 km (7:01 / km) +386m 6:05 / km
shoes: Inov-8 Mudclaw 265 Blue
Determined to "do" a Southern Champs course in the FoD out of bloody mindedness.
Changed mind re. New Beech at last minute, as know it too well. Found Lydney Park 2010 M45L, which i apparently came 5th in 73mins , Feb 2010.
Parked near no 18, and missed finish field. Started at no 18. route to no 19 total brambles - awful. Went round paths. Map showed my 2010 route and sadly this influenced me masses, not really taking different routes. Brambles near no 8 & 9 biblical. Just - no!!!!
Many signs saying "private woodlands - do not enter" & "shooting may be in progress" . Disturbed dozens of pheasants. Didn't feel very comfortable. Was not wearing BOK gear! ;-)
the long leg took me about 11-12 minutes, i think Clive may have done it sub-10 in 2010.
Generally a horrible experience but good training & thighs, whilst not perfect, held up fine with the 386m of up & down.
