Orienteering race (Navdash - Long) 23:09 [4] 3.27 km (7:05 / km) +29m 6:47 / km
ahr:162 max:174 shoes: ASICS GEL - Nimbus 17
Clean through the first few then a mistake on reading the map and a bit of a hunt for #4.
Blew up on way to #8 and backed off a bit after that recovered by about map change and had been pretty clean through all those. Tried to up the pace again a bit post map change but body wasnt havin it.
16-17-18 combo made me smile but lost time on 19 expecting it at the top not the bottom. then up to 20 destroyed my soul. Opted for the road back around I wasnt sure if it was faster than going back down the stairs - realistically was going slow by now anyway.
Sprint finish - took Paul by 2s on that split - because everyone knows its the finish that counts.
Should have put ice cream on it like Paul requested because he didnt punch the map change control and as a result MP'ed and I beat him #take it :P
Bricks timing where WAY out - they desperately need a re calibration for next week!
Orienteering race (Navdash - Medium) 15:24 [4] 2.15 km (7:10 / km) +21m 6:50 / km
ahr:164 max:174 shoes: ASICS GEL - Nimbus 17
Knew post that Paul had me - the next leg was up the staircase of pain and this put the nail in my coffin - legs smashed now. 6-7-8-9-10-11-12 all clean and easy but legs giving up really on way out to 11 and had seen Paul goign to 12 when I went to 10 so knew was semi in contact.
From 12-13 Paul was sitting at finish which led to some disappointment - I slowed up a bit then but not too much.
Finish sprint went full tilt because I knew Paul would have. eased up about 15m before control rather than all the way onto it. wish I hadnt as Paul and I tied for 8s.
Orienteering race (Navdash - Short) 7:42 [3] 1.1 km (7:00 / km) +11m 6:40 / km
ahr:162 max:173 shoes: ASICS GEL - Nimbus 17
Royally screwed number 4 and my race was probably over at this point.
Legs shattered pushed through 5-6-7 when i saw Paul catching me.
Probably could have held him off but he caught me at 9 because I figured we would have a sprint finish together - sadly he was in front of me just at 10 and even though I gained the 1m on him he had poll position on finish flag and after wrestling the control for a while I eventually hip and shouldered him out of the way and punched in.
I got 11s I am claiming 4 wasted :P he only got 14 - apparently he was still trying to punch ahah.
Either way I won the battle of the finish splits :P (along with the main course of the day #winner :P )
PS I think I enjoyed the medium the most but of course I will be back for Long next time! - Today was my first Navdash ever.

I dont knwo if it was global idiot pedestrian day or stupidly cuttoff Bryce day, but I had multiple people (mainly walkers) walk straight infront of my bike this morning when I had right of way and was at reasonable speed - generally without looking or even caring - a few close calls not that the walkers cared.
Bike computer wasnt working for majority of ride. Probably need a new/better computer. Along with a rear light that stays on - mine magically turns itself off quite often now!

Load of waiting at lights at the start which was disappointing.
Glasses didn't fair so well in the rain, tended to fog up as soon as I stopped moving and didnt de-fog as quickly as they normally would.
Generally a nice ride

Avoided rain - woohoo

Mountain Biking (Langford Park) 1:33:44 [3] 17.58 km (11.3 kph) +287m
ahr:130 max:158 shoes: Giro Privateer
Felt like my handling on the pea gravel was terrible and felt very unsettled the first lap then let some air out of the tyres and felt much more at home. probably could have let some more out still
PR's all over the place - so even though i felt slow and tired after yesterday still apparently going quite well... wonder what that means I could do if rested.
