Run race ((orienteering)) 20:28 [4] *** 3.4 km (6:01 / km)
spiked:25/27c
Australian Sprint Championships, 14th in M21E, 27th combined. A fairly standard sprint run for me. Lacking sharpness early on and lost a few seconds on 1 when I ran to the women's control instead, but gradually built as it went on. I thought I might get caught by one or more of those behind me; Eric was more or less on me by 12 and was just ahead of me at the spectator control. I would have done better had the race started there; the last part was much more technical with an intensity not too far short of southern Europe. I got back ahead of Eric at 20, and then got a jump on Bruce out of 25 - I thought it was a route choice but it turned out that he hadn't been to 24 and had to go back for it (which may explain why he caught me so quickly in the first place).
The juniors showed all of us up today.
Later in the day, I was to witness a violation of the clause in the WA Constitution which requires Dennis Lillee to appear at least once in every commercial break screened within the state. It probably wouldn't have come as too much of a surprise in 1981 to learn that he would still be a marketable commodity 30 years later; it would have come as a surprise that he is now president of the WACA.
