Note
No parkrun for me, had to go on an algebra course. Dad ran his 50th this morning :-)
7 PM
Orienteering race 24:24 [5] *** 4.15 km (5:53 / km) +28m 5:41 / km
16c shoes: Inov8 X-talons 2
Urban #6 - Ruimsig Golf Course
Didn't have the best run but a decent result in the end (2nd behind Michele - 22:42).
Exit angle wasn't good leaving #2 - so a big banana there. Also not smooth leaving #4. Had some good splits into and out of the rough patches and happy with my time on the long leg up the hill to #11. Caught Sarah W near #12. Ran my bum off to pass her but she was cleaner into #14. I got to #15 before her but stuffed up the exit angle to #16. She then pulled out 8 seconds on the finish sprint!

Metrogaine starting at Fourway's High with Steph Mulder.
Really enjoyed it. Choosing a route was tough with all the road closures. Think we did a pretty decent job in the end.

GOC relay at the Wilds.
First leg for ROC ladies.
Had a long forking to #1 so was a bit off the pace through the first few. Made up some ground up the hill but a hesitation into #6 cost me 20 seconds. Went over the bridge in 4th (I think?) in contact with Garry and with Mark. Got pulled by another control to #12 and lost time on the cliff to #15 (had to drop down to the fence and run along it). The rest went okay. Was surprised to finish 4th? (about 2 mins ahead of RACO ladies). My run felt pretty bad but I guess I managed to minimize mistakes.
The RACO ladies had a strong second leg to overtake us so we ended up 2nd.
