| British Middle Champs. Mulgrave Woods. Finally some technical and physical orienteering! Had a great first third and turns out i was 40secs up at the radio control. Then blew the 40 secs at the next control!! Was scrappy and felt slow (but looks like everyone else was too) on the second half. Pleased to finish 2nd. I've been consistently not running to potential so good to get a solid result. Great run from OJ. |

| JK Relays -Caerwent Military Camp. Weird area -lots of fences and bunkers and very fast running. Biggest cock up for a long time some 3 minuites -i have to say the map was balls in that little bit -and l went in twice on a bearing from the knoll which was meant to be at the same height as the cairn i was looking for but in fact it was another 10m lower down the slope... |
