Orienteering race 52:00 [5] 6.5 km (8:00 / km) +120m7:19 / km
ESOC SOSOL Dalkeith Park, Blue (6.5 km, 120 m) in 52:00. A big 180 degree error off the start (-2.00), but thereafter pretty steady and solid on a brilliantly sunny Sunday lunchtime, with a sub-optimal route choice 5-6 (-0.20) the only other navigational error. An enjoyable workout on a lovely November day.
Drumchapel parkun #123 in 25:11 on a chilly but sunny morning. Drumchapel parkrun is always tough, and today was no exception! Steady effort only about 30 seconds outside my Drumchapel PB.

Urban Orienteering race 42:31 [3] 4.9 km (8:41 / km)
CLYDE AGM Urban Event (4.9 km) in 42:31. Steady plod round the newly extended Milngavie map. Some interesting right/left route choices. Overtaken by Dave and Donald near the end. A steady effort, but never really trying.
Cycling onto and back out of Leiden, including checking out several dead ends and a couple of building sites in the gathering gloom while trying to get back to the hotel without a map. Feeling rather more human.
A 4 am start got me to my conference in Leiden at 8:55 am UK time (9:55 am local time), i.e. earlier than I would probably have got to work in Glasgow! Pretty tired in the afternoon after my talk.
