Orienteering race 2:16:22 [4] 16.0 km (8:31 / km)
BEOC Classic - M21E
Who's stupid idea was it for me to do this???? Thanks Cross!
As soon as I'd started I realised there was nothing in my legs - I'd run hard the day before and was still reeling from the recent cold. Settled in for the long run. Caught Ackers just before the slag heap and promptly spiked every control over the hill (shame, Ackers should have missed some here;-)
Tiring towards the end and let Ackers get away. I can't believe he got the 3 minutes back on me plus 1 second! Gutted. Respect to all who ran under 110 for this!
FCC Classic - excellent results from Ralph and Anne, doing the double.
I was sorry to miss the prize giving, having to leave to make a Birmingham flight (which was delayed!). A tough weekend for the juniors on areas where it's very hard to be clean/accurate - not my idea of the best test races for JWOC, especially Italy. Hey-ho.
Run warm up/down 25:00 [3]
I couldn't walk after the race, never mind warm down!
