Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series #11) 43:13 [5] *** 8.99 km (4:48 / km) +225m 4:16 / km
spiked:29/30c shoes: Asics Kayano 22
Route was OK, about 300m longer than optimum but avoided the killer Balmoral Stairs. Didn't lose too much time, overran one turnoff. Getting #21 wasn't too much fun, an 800m dog leg. Got all controls in 43.13, Steve R-40.42, Ondrej-41 (SI sadly full), Glenn-42.30 (jumped the uncrossable cliff avoiding 800m).

Event: Big Foot Sprints
9 AM
Orienteering race (BF Sprints #1) 10:31 [5] *** 1.49 km (7:03 / km) +34m 6:20 / km
spiked:7/12c shoes: Innov-8 X-Talon 212
Shocker to start. Lost 5 secs on about 4-5 controls and also 30 secs on #5 (too far left) and a whole min overrunning #9 even though I saw the control from near #8. Didn't think it would come up so quickly.
11 AM
Orienteering race (BF Sprints #2) 10:38 [5] *** 1.75 km (6:05 / km) +30m 5:36 / km
spiked:8/11c shoes: Innov-8 X-Talon 212
Swapped places with a few runners along the way but lost loads of time on #4 overrunning it (30 secs) and #5 too far South (1 min). Ended up picking up a couple places to 4th but terrible nav on both races. Good fun though.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series #11) 46:41 [5] *** 10.29 km (4:32 / km) +115m 4:18 / km
spiked:27/28c shoes: Asics Kayano 22
Was quite muggy and felt flat. Found it hard to get going. Lost bits of time on road crossings then overran a road junction to #18. Changed my mind heaps towards the end as I was running out of time. Got 550, Steve R-590, Richard Morris-570.
