Orienteering race 38:33 [5] 8.1 km (4:46 / km)
shoes: Helly's
Aus Relays. Good fun
After excellent legs by both John and Ben I went out 2nd, 2:20 down on Rob. Started quite fast and caught sight of Rob at 6 and caught him by 7. Kept up the pace for a while hoping Rob might drop off but that wasn't to be, so slowed down around 9 and 10 as I got tired. At that point I'd say we both figured it would be the finish sprint (although I was hoping to try to run away a bit on the way to the last control. But having the long split at 18 meant I had to catch back up again. And then just couldn't match Rob's long legs in the chute.

Aus Champs
Relatively happy with this run. Impressed at how well I was running through the later stages compared to other long runs I've done recently. Navigationally was a bit funny, kept drifting off my route choices and having to recorrect, plus made a mistake on the second last.

Aus Spirnt Champs
More interesting course than I was expecting. Took a while to spot the 16th (just stood dumbly on the wrong side of the wall for a while).
Also, anyone else notice the dodgy print job our maps got (compare them to other classes maps)
