3hr rogaine at bunya. on the 1:15000 orienteering map. did this with James as a hit out before the ultra long in 2 weeks time. the course looked clearable - as long as we didn't stuff up and the controls were in the right place. things went well early (amusing start - straight off the gun we got burnt by another mixed pair... who then took a wrong turn at the first possible opportunity). Lost about 10 mins early in middle third - control may have been too high on the hill, and by halfway through the controls it was looking doubtful as to whether we'd clear the course. kept things together pretty well till the end and got in with 20mins to spare.
I faded in the last half hour - an extra gel would have been good (2 wasn't enough). the heat was also getting to me. finished 4 mins ahead of the other team who cleared the course.
Final cyclones sprint at St Peters. David set the courses, which ended up being a bit long, but were certainly challenging and fun. The map could definitely do with an update - I added a new building, and David said the rest was ok.. but it really isn't anymore. looks like I've got a bit of homework to do then - it also needs to have the scale changed to 1:4000.
SMT intervals. First time since before woc last year. Pretty hurty, and certainly not quick. but got it done, although things were getting a bit sketchy at the end.
