Orienteering race 43:09 [5] 5.7 km (7:34 / km) +235m6:17 / km
Easter middle distance. Had high expectations of the course as Simon was the setter and it didn't disappoint.
I had a bit of a scrappy start through the first section in the hills and ended up too high on three controls which wasted a fair bit of time. got caught by Krystal on the loop through 5-6-7 which was a bit of a kick up the pants. got my shit together then and started hitting the controls a bit better and gradually pulled away from kryso in the second loop... although in the open terrain it was never going to be enough to get the 2mins back.
Easter sprint in Jamestown. Country town sprints aren't usually too interesting, but this was pretty good for genre. Some interesting control picking in scrappy parkland and a good finish in the school. Still a lot of straight out running which I'm not fast enough for.
I took a stack at speed running over a mound of dirt when I caught my foot on some wire and ended up face first in the dirt. got a bit flustered for a while and lost about 30 secs through the next few controls.
went to see Jim Jefferies last night. very funny and very crude.... as expected. the couple sitting next to me clearly didn't know what to expect, and the girl decided very early on that it was NOT FUNNY. the show started with bill cosby and went downhill from there, but it was the haemorrhoids skit that finally got them to walk out.
