Urban Orienteering race 24:02 **** 4.4 km (5:28 / km) +13m 5:23 / km
ahr:168 max:181 spiked:22/22c shoes: Adidas Supernova Glide
First urban/sprint race of the season really (I would not count the park races in Hungary a few weeks back as they are very different navigationally).
Quite unsatisfied - probably made about 50% the right route choices when there was material difference, including a huuuge mistake straight to No. 1. So left about 3 min in the course I think.
Also not satisfied physically - not surprising but just a feedback on where I am after missing a lot of training over the summer for the various injuries.
The course was interesting though so quite happy with the challenge. Too bad the race timing was straddling dusk so earlier starters had an advantage over late starters (like me) who had to rely on head torch a lot more and take more care on the wet surface with less visibility.
