Event: British Relays
Orienteering race (BOC relays) 1:00:10 [4] 6.6 km (9:07 / km) +150m 8:11 / km
shoes: Adidas Swoop
Culbin West.
What a shocker. First leg on Premier. Ran proper fast in the mass start, keeping up with Craney all the way to 1, then I realised it wasn't my no.1. Soon found the right no.1, then totally lost no.2. Spent 4 mins trying to relocate and find it, by which time I was the only one left anywhere around.
So off I ran at full pelt hoping to find someone good to latch on to. Nah ah. All long gone. So I got myself in a boo and bumbled my way around as fast as I could and consequently navigating very badly making mistakes all over the place. 1 hour for 6.6km. What the hell is the point of all my winter's hard training if I can't get the rewards from the sport I'm training for?
Still, Matt and Mark did a fine job of bringing the BOK Barracudas (someone's gotta sort out the team names!) back up from the bottom and we finished in 18th.
