| Orienteering 50:00 [3]6.6 km (7:35 / km) | |

| Great. First session in S.Africa and I twatted my knee on a rock about 5 mins into it. Decided I was hard and I'd carry on. Likely terrain for snakes so running a bit scared. Other people saw zebras but I saw jack. Still, it was about 35 degrees |

| Stannington, Rivelin Dams, top of Rivelin. Wow gorgeous day! And I had the rocky tune in my head. Maybe Sheffield isn't such a bad place. But still rather be going to South Africa. Next run will be in the summer...
Ooh nearly forgot to mention the cricket. You're only as good as your last game. |

| Long run on Kinder with Oli and Rob. It was minging. Found our way across the wilderness ok despite not being able to see. Alas, we had some trouble finding the mushroom garden map which me and Neil surveyed back in June. We got sunburned then. Not much danger of that this time. |
