Event: Cannock Chase Rocket
 

57.361km with 693m climb in 3:01:29

Canock rocket mtbo. Went clockwise. A bit scrappy early on overshot 2 200m then one big issue going through Rugeley where I lost about 7 or 8 mins. Overshot 16 as looking at 29 on map. Ok after that just about kept a good loop together missed 5 controls in the end and 5 mins late. 513 3 up on Mark but 3 down on Ian for second. Mistake in Rugely costly.

Event: Western Night League - Worcestershire Beacon
 

5.404km with 337m climb in 1:01:02. First wnl of the season a grim night on the Malvern. Set off with medium cag on. I need glasses could not see path on the map up to first one. Got above crag for second one going down was treacherous all night. Over the hill for 30 pointer then 160. Decided to go back over for2 10 pointers then got terribly snarled in brambles going back overt via 166. Next 30 pointer ok then 170 seemed a long way back think on wrong crag now I can see the map. Overshoot on 165 person I was chasing got away. Pleased to hit next 30 pointer straight. Back over the hill 25 mins left so starting to head back. Must of missed 164 on ditch by a few meters went a good way befor heading back to get it. 171 seemed a long way up lucky someone else at 163. Back to take path down to 159 but the path I was on can not be on map as hit middle path well north but guessed I was in the big renterant correctly and found it. Another steep drop for final 30 points before a very hard. Slow half mile up the road to the finish just over 1 min late.

Realy struggling physically and some scrappy nav failing to see map well. Was very surprised to take the win and there were reasonable people out including returning Chris McSweeny. There must of been some nightmare performances.

4.005km with 24m climb in 0:27:52. Quick run on short green befor doing the mtbo. Left on 1 right on 6. 45 degrees out leaving 12 so not the best of nav but a nice little run.

Failed to start logging mtbo nut 56 mins about 15 k as I went. Fairly slow in placed needed more grip. 2 mistakes first took ride too early on 11 then trouble finding 15 needed compass really.
