Other 10:10 [0]
Despite what the GPS says we didn't end up in the ocean. A 6 second km is going to hard to beat.

Run - Orienteering race 24:58 [5] 3.53 km (7:04 / km) +131m 5:58 / km
shoes: VJ Falcons 14
Aside from the first control (which was basically a copy of a leg we had yesterday) today was a lot more fun. Ran as hard as I could and was clean apart from wandering offline a couple of times. Luckily for me AndyS wasn't as clean so I maintained my lead, Lard moving up to 4th with his best run.
Fun week and very glad that I was running M40 - was completely finished at the end of the long race. Plenty of great results from FVO.

Described as 'mountain terrain' so was expecting big hills and steep slopes, was actually really nice woods with some lovely detail, unfortunately the planning didn't make the most of it. Really enjoyed at lot of it again struggled on the hills, early start was a disadvantage as the grass was long in the open areas, but didn't really lose much time. AndyS again got me and is now only a minute behind going into the last day. Much better from Lard today who moved up quite a bit overall.

Not the most technically demanding area with a few too many hills but some nice woods. Good nav until the penultimate control but was still nowhere near AndyS' running pace - my lead over him is now down to about 2.5 minutes. Bad day from Lard.

Somehow managed not to finished last in a sprint! Even beat Lard, AndyS was well ahead though. Very tricky, not the navigation but lots of limestone pavement and rain is not a nice mix. Nav good apart from one control, running was slow.

Run - Orienteering race 29:09 [5] 3.61 km (8:04 / km) +176m 6:29 / km
shoes: VJ Falcons 14
Very wet and very enjoyable. Quite a scrappy forest which suited me just fine, ran well and orienteered okay after the (very easy) first control on which I dropped a minute, no real strength though. Finished a minute or so up on Lard and about five up on AndyS (who had a bad day).
