Trot/walk around street area.
Sunday May 3, 2009 #
Event: BEOC Long Race
Orienteering race 1:36:21 [4] *** 16.1 mi (5:59 / mi) +645m 5:19 / mi
shoes: Innov8
BEOC Mallards Pike & New Beechenhurst.
Bit tired still from all the travel. Started steadily and pleased to catch my 3 min man at #4. Then a big fall on 5-6. Lay there a bit pondering, scraped shin, bashed knee. continued to see if it would loosen off. Sore, lost stability on descents, but didn't obviously get worse, continue slowly and carefully. Cross road to other part of area, flatter, only trouble being ditches. Jason appears just before slag heap (which I can't easily read) and we run together for a while (including a mistake, which allows NevM55 to sneak past). Pull away through last section, as thanks to going so slowly before I don't really tie up.
1 Oliver Johnson 97:48
27 Graeme Ackland 136:21
43 ran
Highest finish for several years, but field was quite weak after top-5.

Orienteering 1:30:00 [3] *** 10.0 mi (9:00 / mi)
Old-times-sake run around Rutgers Environmental Preserve. Pretty much as I remember it from 2002, sunny, vague, and runnable throughout. That this area has seen such little use is a great pity, but should start to be put right next week.
