Running warm up/down 8:30 [3] 1.0 mi (8:30 / mi)
Urban Orienteering race 49:04 [5] 7.3 mi (6:43 / mi) +60m 6:33 / mi
Was feeling heavy warming up after yesterday but when I finished felt like I had done well and given it my best, but clearly my legs were more tired during the race than I felt as the effort wasn't producing the speed it normally would, as the splits show. Apart from 1 or 2 minor hesitancies no navigational issues so simply a case of leg speed.
That'll teach me to faff around doing stuff I can't do the day before.
Good courses.
Running warm up/down 9:00 [2] 1.0 mi (9:00 / mi)

Running warm up/down 8:10 [2] 1.0 mi (8:10 / mi)
Running race 16:50 [5] 3.0 mi (5:37 / mi) +20m 5:30 / mi
Some loon went flying off but I was ahead by 500m and then it was solo.
Took it steady to begin with and wound it up, though was tricky to run fast on the twisty path round the lake, but was able to step it up on the last lap. Was raining badly by the end.
Running warm up/down 19:30 [3] 2.5 mi (7:48 / mi)
Running warm up/down 8:20 [2] 1.0 mi (8:20 / mi)
Orienteering 2:10:20 [3] 9.7 mi (13:26 / mi) +90m 13:04 / mi
Enjoyed the Hightown dunes last year, but this was too much
Couldn't read the contours well enough and don't understand how you can be up to your waist in brambles and they aren't mapped. Add in the rain and another off putting terrain experience. Still, I didn't give up I guess.
The first six and the last six were pleasant enough.
Absolutely shattered by the end and afterwards.
Running warm up/down 6:00 [3] 0.7 mi (8:34 / mi)

Running 1:05:30 [3] 7.6 mi (8:37 / mi) +150m 8:07 / mi
Very pleasant until I planted my foot on a rock sticking up out of the path but hidden by the grass.
