Orienteering - Forest (Tyntesfield) 59:57 [3] 4.39 km (13:39 / km) +83m 12:29 / km
shoes: X-Talon 212 (Sep16)

Up early to arrive for 8am to put some controls out for Phil. Pretty straightforward apart from one where I'm not convinced the feature existed... I don't think I have ever actually orienteered here before?

Orienteering - Forest race (Belstone) 45:02 [4] 7.15 km (6:18 / km) +234m 5:25 / km
shoes: X-Talon 212 (Sep16)

1st/3 when I left. This was the first day of a long-o weekend; most people were doing the 1, 2 or 3 hour score, but I don't like scores - luckily they put a blue and a green on too. Didn't push too hard due to being conscious of the race tommorow, but still, was nice to be out running on Dartmoor. This bit of it was very rocky, and the non-rocky bits were pretty rough. Going round the paths was much faster when it was possible; there was one leg near the end where I should've done this. Only really one mistake on #3 where there was a lot of contour detail not on the map - because it was too low, undoubtedly, but the control feature when I did find it did not look to be any larger to me than the unmapped bit. But not fussed really; was just a nice day to be out running :)

Note

Finally got around to writing up the RAB MM :) 2 weeks late!
