Running warm up/down 5:00 [2] 0.6 km (8:20 / km)
shoes: New balance 760

Warm up around the track at the sports arena

11 AM

Running (Cooper test) 6:30 [3] 1.6 km (4:04 / km)
shoes: New balance 760

Pulled out because I got shin splints and wanted to be able to run freely for the rest of the weekend, so didn't let them set in for too long.

1 PM

Orienteering race (Maize maze) 25:48 [4] **** 2.5 km (10:19 / km)
shoes: Inov-8's

Was muddier than expected and slippy on the corners, this one I hadn't got into the map and missed a route which cost me 2-3 minutes in extra distance right round the other end of the maze, i also went round in circles in the same bit for a while.

2 PM

Orienteering (Maize maze) 19:11 [4] **** 2.5 km (7:40 / km)
shoes: Inov-8's

This one went much better, with only one mistake, this being the fact I visited number 8, then on to 9, at which point I thought I hadn't punched 8 and went back, I recognised it and realised I had been there, I had just completely forgotten about it, probably cost me about 30 seconds because it was only a short leg to do twice.

4 PM

Orienteering (Maize maze final) 17:54 [4] **** 2.5 km (7:10 / km)
shoes: Inov-8's

Somehow though the first leg was over the bridge and was on the other side before I realised and went round the loop instead of back over agian. Then still managed to catch up andrew Lindsay and Dalgleish somehow, all went well until the final leg, where I didn't spot the bridge option and ran round a long loop to the finish, costing me more time, total loss about 40 seconds.
