Running long (OMM) 5:30:28 [3] * 21.0 km (15:44 / km) +1650m 11:18 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talons 2

Lost a few minutes on the first 2 controls due to being on the wrong stream (in both cases) Then had a pretty good run to the score section, where we chose the wrong route and lost a good 30mins by missing an easy to get control and going a long way down the other side to a different one, then we missed the sheep trod that contoured out of the next control and instead climbed up the back of the gully and dropped into the control after, costing us even more time. 9th overall (27th on the day)

Orienteering race 1:14:30 [3] * 16.5 km (4:31 / km) +100m 4:23 / km

SROC Street league 1, Lancaster South. Made a small tactical error, in that I ran a long stratch round the east of the map with not many controls, where I could have missed the few high point ones on that side, and got the many high point ones down the middle, but I ended up getting about 300 less than I could have with the distance I ran.

Orienteering race 1:22:07 [3] **** 8.8 km (9:20 / km) +255m 8:09 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talons 2

Simpson Ground, Brown. Really good course, stayed in the nice bits, apart from a short stretch I cut across in the open, which was avoidable. Finished 3:10 down on Nick, and 1:20 down on Mike M.

10 AM

Running warm up/down 20:00 [1] 3.0 km (6:40 / km)

Out to salt Ayre and back from the Station

Running tempo (12 min run) 12:00 [4] 3.0 km (4:00 / km)

Not feeling at my best, nearly got over the line for 3100m which would have equalled my previous best. Could have probably got 3200m if I had started off at the right pace, I had too much left at the end.

Running (Beep test) 10:00 [4] 1.65 km (6:04 / km)

10.1, could have gone further, but I was missing each one by a few inches, so I was honest and pulled out.

Ran up to Marple and back to go climbing, good practice for the OMM with a big rucksack, carrying more than I would for the real thing.
