Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.3 km (7:42 / km)
Orienteering race 1:04:00 [3] 9.8 km (6:32 / km)
Orchard Rd, Kowen Forest
First real forest race since Swiss O week last year. I did do a Canberra summer series race and one race in Melbourne Sprint weekend in the bush since then but nothing else.
I stuck with the long course and was glad I did. Made it around ok although pretty slowly. I did walk one big hill and a few walking steps in some other tough places. A few 30 second errors which was poor for this (easy) area but expected with my rustiness. Also struggled in the bits where there was timber on the ground, again not a surprise.
Sam was happy and went ok - he had a few long legs with route choice which was a new experience for him.
