11 AM
Orienteering race 12:36 [5] **** 4.0 km (3:09 / km)
spiked:22/23c
British sprint champs qualifier. Great bit of estate terrain with some more straightforward parkland at the end, ran safely and avoided mistakes or hesitations. Nearly had a head on collision with GG though, wonder who would have come off worse? Great fun and managed to win the heat.

Orienteering race 15:02 [5] **** 4.0 km (3:46 / km)
spiked:22/24c
British sprint champs final around Chorley town centre and back through Astley Park. Tried to run comfortably and cleanly, but the course was very straightforward and needed a more aggressive approach. Made a couple of small bananas in the park, but hadn't lost much time when a speedy GG appeared on my heels - I pushed harder after that but it was too late by then. Not a great final run, but sort of enjoyed it anyway.
