Event: NSW State League #5 - Gardens of Stone
 

Started out slow but going OK. Too far right and overshot 4 by a fair bit. Saw Marina coming out of it as I was going in - she had a shocker at 2... Good route choice but not enough fitness to do 6 well so that was annoying. Fine through to 8. Bingo leg to 9 which I knew looking at it, got to the area and found a posse of M65 looking bewildered - not a good sign. Steered clear of them but did not locate a control and could not be bothered traipsing around a bland hillside. Decided to call it quits as wanted to get home at a reasonable time. Glad I did, didn't even bother collecting fun rock controls on way in. Way too much compass work required this weekend, which is not my strong suit and not much fun and with dodgy new compass even worse than usual. (Found an old Suunto in the cupboard which I will use until its gets a bubble like all the others and then I'll get a replacement MosCompass or even go chinese.)

PS Missed the first part of the course as GPS did not start for some reason. Noticed going into 5 but did not get it switched on until part way to 6.

Event: NSW State League #4 - Mt Piper
 

Despite the mountain to climb mid course, no training and finishing 10 min behind Jo I felt much better than last week. Need to find time to train between now and July!
