Orienteering race 42:43 [4] 5.4 km (7:55 / km) +210m 6:37 / km
shoes: Icebug (ii)
Had a decent run technically, but just could not muster up any speed especially on the climbs. Silly parallel error on #18 but otherwise no problems. The forest was (mercifully) clear and open and I really enjoyed the orienteering.
Shame I didn't really run with others. A couple of people went past but I just didn't have the strength to go head to head.

Orienteering race 2:40:58 [4] 15.4 km (10:27 / km) +720m 8:28 / km
shoes: Icebug (ii)
Although this looks worse than the middle race it was a more positive experience. It was obvious I couldn't compete so this was more of an extended training run which I really enjoyed until completely ran out of juice at about #25, with a few km still to go. For that last bit I was literally staggering back home.
A bit annoyed to make lazy mistakes at #2 (parallel error, but should have used the trees to correct more quickly) and #3 (didn't see the crossing point). But for the rest I was mostly clean if slow.

Orienteering race 56:22 [3] 5.7 km (9:53 / km) +190m 8:29 / km
shoes: Icebug (ii)
Just a bit lost at sea for this one. My lack of terrain running and O over the last year since getting injured at the JK really showed. I never got to grips with the terrain and was moving slowly all the way. Felt strangely fresh afterwards as with the terrain I never really managed to run aggressively. Chastening.

Orienteering race 22:06 [4] 4.1 km (5:23 / km) +20m 5:16 / km
shoes: inov8 f-lite 195
Solid race apart from #14 which I blew in spectacular style and lost over two minutes. It was down to re-folding my map, not keeping a close eye on where I was, and then not taking a moment to work out properly what had happened.
That aside, I had a decent run going at a steady speed and keeping on top of the nav.
Road running warm up/down 15:00 [1] 2.5 km (6:00 / km)
