Orienteering race 1:03:20 [5] 8.4 km (7:32 / km) +280m 6:28 / km
Qld champs day 2. Started a bit more calmly than yesterday, and wasn't quite in the zone, but just tried to stay concentrated and keep running hard. lost a bit of time getting pushed around in the green on the way to 2, then overshot 5 cos I'd assumed it was on a little side creek where I'd see the control as I ran past, but instead it was tucked down at the bottom of the earthbank. got too high, and just as I was realising my stuff up I nearly stood on an enormous black snake - its amazing how such encounters give you awesome powers of levitation. then had to get back past the snake to run back down the creek. got my shit together after that, and made sure I read the control descriptions.
had a couple more little wobbles, some dodgy map related, but nothing major. generally happy with the run, and pleased (and surprised) to take the overall win by 12mins. hope I can keep some decent form going till aus champs, its been a while since I've felt as good racing.
