Event: Easter 2014

shoes: VJ Sticky
Long warm up trying to keep myself busy while I waited for my start (I was 2nd last). I was disturbed by how puffed I was getting jogging along. A short warm down after before I was bundled into the car to head back to camp for a shower.
2 PM
Orienteering race 15:38 [4] *** 2.8 km (5:35 / km) +110m 4:40 / km
spiked:19/20c shoes: VJ Sticky
Easter Prologue at the Common, Rylstone. 25th, 2:36 (20%) behind Lachy. This was a pretty straightforward bush sprint and I mean 'straightforward' literally, it was all about sticking to the straight line. I managed this well for 19 of 20 controls, a couple of little deviations including the long leg, but then dropped focus and a minute on #18. Annoyed about that, not quite the start to Easter I wanted, but also disappointed that I would have been 1:30 behind anyway and don't seem to be able to match the faster guys as well in a bush sprint as in an urban sprint.
