Orienteering race 25:12 [5] 5.6 km (4:30 / km) +50m 4:18 / km
shoes: Salomon speed cross 3

Billy Goat Race so you could leave out 2 of the 17 controls.
Started off ok and took a bearing up the slope. Ed got in front and he seemed on a good line so I took a look at the map to see what ones to drop. There was no obvious drops so I decided on a few of the last controls. Unfortunately Ed's bearing wasn't so good so we dropped 30 seconds after going all the way to the road.
Settled in and just followed the lights around the first part but I was always in contact with the map. Overtook Mike on the way to #6 and could see Scott off in the distance so worked hard to close the gap. Scott did great getting us into #8 & 9 and this is where Ed started running back to us after he missed 8.
I followed James H around 10-12 and then I was on my own to the finish as I dropped out 13 and then 16. I managed to sneak in for the win with a bit of luck and the Achilles held up very well.
This was certainly the hardest it and myself had worked since the op so all good.
