Event: SYO National Event, Burbage
 

Burbage Moor national event, M35S. Really enjoyed this apart from control no. 1 which took me 26 mins to find and therefore ruined any hopes of a decent time. Looking at the splits I am not alone in this, although the winners of these courses clearly seemed to go straight to it, but a significant number took well over 15 mins to find it. Still, I nailed the other 16 controls pretty well and it was a good contrast of open moorland and woodland. Pretty steep in places.

Course 7 - Splits

Found another programme on the machine which mimics intervals. Given a distance or time this is broken into 12 sections and at the level I set, moves between 11 and 18.9 Kmh. Felt like a good workout and toward the end I was finding it hard to stick at the higher speed.
