Orienteering race 1:12:34 [5] 9.33 km (7:47 / km) +466m 6:13 / km
ahr:137 max:149 shoes: Apr 2010 VJ Falcon
Brown course, 8km with a lot more climb than claimed! Won by Jase in 67 with Neil C on 70.
Similar to yesterday in some ways, ran mostly okay but spoilt run with one silly error, today it cost 3 mins. Changed mind en route to #9 and lost contact, dropped into a control in what looked like correct feature and punched it, then realised it wasn't mine. Was within 5m of flag within another 30secs but didn't see it and didn't come back for another 2 mins. A little more calmness required...
Other than that, maybe a little hesitant on the diagonal downhill legs to crags overlooking Coniston Water, plus confused by unmapped bushes at #24 and overshot the marsh, bounced back from the next one.
Generally orienteering a lot better in amongst the Lake District contours and crags than around the streets of Dunblane last Wednesday!
