Gribskov Mid
Legs felt pretty tired from the start but kept pushing and focused on orienteering well. was clean apart from losing 15sec on number 1,30sec disorientated at a track junction and another 20 on a short leg in the green. apart from that ok but just tired.
pleased with run and happy with position. |

relay training, mass start gaffled.
The snow was definetly the worst here of any area, up to my knees in some places.
spiked the first 5 so had a bit of a lead but then screwed up the long leg, was in the circle but didn't see it then went to relocate john caught me then we missed it again! spongy passed us so we were chasing him for the last couple, he won with john about 5 secs down and me 10secs further back.
knackered:) |

| Getryggen
Mass start Long training with a gaffled loop in the middle.
again there was lots of snow so the going was tough but it was just awesome! puntered abit at the start and lost the pack of guys but by the loop had caught back a bit and me and john ran the long leg together out round the track and i got away from him on the last technical loop. rhodri and spongy went for the hard man option on the long leg and went straight, due to the snow it was a bit slower:)

| sprint training, on the area used for Oringen 2004 prologue.
4 loops, mass start gaffled races, with an easy line in between each start.
only ran the first loop cos i was tired and had some chest pains. i ran it badly, really srewing up the long leg into the wood, just didn't adjust pace. |

good run finishing in a pack lead by John, Rasmus Djurhuus and ian nixon, with a nc guy a few seconds out in front.
coombs and hector had solid runs to send scotia out in 4th with a chance of podium. in the driving hail he had a good run passing craney to bring home the bronze.

 | orienteering race (Jk Long) 1:06:01 [5]12 km (5:30 / km) +490m 4:34 / km | |

| Ashdown forest
pretty clean run again, losing about 2min over the course.
most of my mistakes due to loss of concentration, not surprising since our course was very poor and was just a physical test not a technical one.
Finished 2nd again, behind Erik. which was a bit dissapointing but pleased with my performances.
John grabbed the last podium spot, Rhodri just 17s behind, really enjoyed how close competition was. |
