Orienteering race (SOL1 Birsemore) 49:13 [3] 5.8 km (8:29 / km)
shoes: VJ Integrator

Challenging course but mostly kept to the nice bits, tough on the north slope. Slow to 2 but don’t know why, lost 1.45 at 6 (possibly the easiest control on the course!) as didn’t trust my compass and ran to an unmarked spur.Didnt take any chances and stayed in control as I knew the forest wouldn’t suit me.

Broxburn, controlled race, a couple of poor routes but no errors, pleased to win against a strong field. Stiil coughing up gunge but legs at least well rested.

Orienteering race (Broxburn SOUL) 13:07 [5] 3.0 km (4:22 / km)

Didn't push quite as hard, just a couple of hesitations, tired towards the end.
Finished just ahead of Keith Tonkin to win.
7 of us capable of winning today with Dave Robertson and Jon Hollingdale to add its going to be a fun season.

Still struggling a little so missed the Masters XC today but felt up to an easier run around the dunes at night.
John Muir Country Park.
Finished 2nd M55 after a 5 min mistake at 11 (map was hopeless in that area but still shouldn't have lost that much.)
The rest went ok so going to give the British Nights a try.
May need a better torch, my old bike light starting to fail.
