orienteering race (Mt Barker Primary sprint) 20:26 [4] 2.5 km (8:10 / km)
shoes: Asics Kayano 23

Fun sprint around the primary school, cinemas & parklands by the creek in Mt Barker, although I'd have preferred another lap of the school's intricacies to a slog through wet grass at the end, being outsprinted by Zara & Des. I was pretty tentative on wet pavement, and missed a couple of better route choices (my eyesight doesn't pick up all the mapped detail at sprint pace) but although I'd definitely like to be faster in a month's time, didn't get beaten by anyone unexpected.

orienteering race (Cornerstone College sprin) 14:20 [4] 1.9 km (7:33 / km)
shoes: Asics Kayano 23

We moved a couple km away for the next race, which started in the school, went out the back of the hill to a bit of bushland, back into the school and then across the ovals to the creek. Again I made some dumb route choices, partly because of an uncrossable wall where I didn't identify the gap properly, but this was fun also. Guess I haven't really done that much orienteering lately!

Managed to get home and cleaned/glammed up in time to go out again to the hospice farewell function (commemorative service in the hospital's chapel followed by high tea in the hall) at 2pm. Just wish I knew whether or not I'll be able to follow the palliative care team to FMC...
