| Event: NOC Compass Sport Cup Final |
 | Orienteering race 1:00:05 [5]9.8 km (6:08 / km) | |

| CompassSport Trophy final. Bildworth forest - such grot and what I hate more than anything, an inconsistent map - why was the whole place not covered in a bramble screen? So happy not to be an early starter, why is the CSC nearly always run on a horrible area? Went by what the map indicated to number 1 (going around the dark green - but this proved to be nicer than most of the white...) and lost 40 seconds straight off. Slow for the first part but got running better towards the end, lost 1.30 at 21 which was mostly my fault, but I can also blame the map a bit. Lots of running the long way round paths to avoid the 'white' forest, so not my kind of place. FVO did mange to regain the trophy though and I somehow got a decent finishing position (although GG murdered the field). |

| shoes: Asics Torana |
| Loop in the Peaks from Moscar, up Black Tor, an anti-clock loop to the north and then back down the ridge past Wheel stones. Cracking evening when I left but got darker and wetter, so was quite cold and damp when I finished. Didn't see a soul the whole time. |
