Event: London Night Series 2014-15 #4: Wimbledon Common
 

Commuting

Rode from work to Putney to get to tonight's race.

SLOW Night O at Wimbledon Common
GPS Distance: 5.87km

It was good to be out in the forest this evening. A fairly clean run, if less risky run. I lost some time at 9 when I dropped off the track too early and got caught in the fight. 13 too with an overly cautious route choice and on the way to the finish, caught in brambles.

Event: TVOC Chiltern Challenge Regional Event Level B
 

Chiltern Challenge at Penn Wood and Common Wood.
UK Level B Event. 3rd Place.

First orienteering race since being named to the Australian NDS. Legs held up surprisingly well considering the long run yesterday though I was not as strong through the forest as I otherwise might have. Lost a minute slipping south on control six and another thirty seconds after the timed out road crossing. Otherwise just small stuff here and there, mostly slight errors in direction with compass. Gaining more confidence in the British forest though. GPS Distance: 13.4km

Black - Splits

Long run on Saturday this week as there's an orienteering race on tomorrow. Headed out from home, south down to Clapham Common, then north to Battersea Park and then north again to Hyde Park. Home via Green Park, St James' Park and Lambeth Bridge. Legs rather heavy for the last 8-9km.

Run after work down to Burgess Park and back. Light rain the whole time.
