Orienteering 50:50 [3] 8.0 km (6:21 / km)
shoes: Saucony Peregrine 2
Newcastle Orienteering NOY3 Southams Road- West
Body was pretty beaten up from yesterday's race, particularly a very tight left piriformis. Eased into the course with the first few controls which required some good compass work. Got smashed by Macey over the first 5 controls and was 5mins down after 20mins! Then we were pretty even for the rest of the course and I finished 2nd 4.5mins behind.
The terrain was much nicer than the newcastle maps around when I was growing up. I think I was still a bit conservative, like at the WOC Trials long distance trial last year that was on the map across the road.
Great turn out and it was good to see the Newcastle club putting on a great event, with SI and waterproof maps for $7!! Impressive.
