Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra - ANU) 17:24 [5] *** 3.23 km (5:23 / km) +50m 5:00 / km
spiked:20/23c shoes: Asics Kayano 22 (Black)

My best run and by far best result of the weekend with limited mistakes on a very tricky Uni map. Lost time on the usual hesitations trying to work out the detail. Then 18, 19, 20 got really confused with all the oob and the wide routes you needed to take. Finished in a three way tie not too far down with Marty Dent and Patrick Miller.

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra - Uni Can) 16:22 [5] *** 3.85 km (4:15 / km) +49m 4:00 / km
spiked:13/17c shoes: Asics Kayano 22 (Black)

Better run than yesterday on a more technical map. Still made a number of small errors though.

#2 (10 secs) started running wrong long route choice and had to backtrack. Hadn’t read ahead.

#6 (10 secs) got caught on the wrong level after going through underpass. Then needed to take twirly stairs out.

#7 (10 secs) missed the straight option between the oob. Ended up very wide.

#12 (15 secs) couldn’t work out underpass and how to get to top level, then probably picked a sub- optimum route

Had SI Air this time which is far better.
5 PM

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra - Bruce R) 19:03 [5] *** 3.55 km (5:22 / km) +31m 5:09 / km
spiked:13/16c shoes: Asics Kayano 22 (Black)

Bush Sprint. Felt so lethargic from generally being running tired, but also a heavy lunch and beers. Really made me slow down but really lose much time.

#1 (10 secs) a few hesitations and bit wobbly trying to go straight

#6 (20 secs) tried to go straight but ended up hitting northern track

#14 (10 secs) bit offline

Forgot o shoes too which would have helped. Generally needed to go straighter on most legs. Finished way down, kinda expected on a bush map.

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra - AIS) 15:49 [5] *** 3.75 km (4:13 / km) +55m 3:56 / km
spiked:14/17c shoes: Asics Kayano 22 (Black)

All my mistakes early on a fast easy map. And didn’t feel great. Lost time on:

#2 (15 secs) firstly starting to hit te wrong way round building where one way was an impassable fence then getting caught in the ramps.

#3 (10 secs) time deciding route then taking wrong one.

#4 (10 secs) taking early turnoff into oob.

Also not having SI Air (20 secs). Finished way down, really losing speed with age.

Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series) 42:37 [5] *** 9.95 km (4:17 / km) +202m 3:53 / km
spiked:30/30c shoes: Asics Kayano 22 (Black)

Didn’t really have time to plan as had the kids. Ended up 600m off the optimum. Legs still tired too but got slightly better in second half. Really looking forward to a rest after the weekend. Got all controls in 42.37 well down on Ondrej, but the same min/km so shows my route was shite.
