Curragh East.
Didn't go fast but steady focusing on using compass and finding attackpoints for each control. Actually read descriptions and not just codes! Really good map update and course. Lost maybe 1minute in total from mistakes. Great event!

Ran the Bushy Park night-o. Good for the first few but lost a minute on 6 because the map had been mostly rubbed off and couldn't make out anything. This then proceeded me to mess up route to 7. Felt I had a good speed and choosing most of the right route choices. Would have been easier if there was controls because I spent some time hesitating to see if I was definitely in the right place. 1:18 behind c.hill's time from that event which I'm happy with considering how I couldn't see the map in some parts. Really interesting sprint area. Update to ISSOM and it would be class!

C • Class?? 6

Dalgan Park.
Picked the map up at the start and there was loads of controls but no lines, so I was like "Oh, they changed it to a score". Proceeded to run around all the controls and when I downloaded it turned out I had DNF'd. Apparently you were meant to run in order of the numbers but they didn't put the lines in because it was too confusing. What a crock of shit! But it looks like what i did was much more enjoyable. Straight line distance was 7.4km so all the running around would maybe have been 10km around the blandest area and the most boring course. Poor.

Orienteering 39:46 [3] *** 7.29 km (5:27 / km)

O-intervals in Belfield. Planned three short courses~2km with a jog recovery in between. Ran well on the first and second one but sustained a pain on the third at the back of my knee so jogged the rest. It's the shoes, I got this pain last week aswell when running fast in these old Asics. Getting new Asics and O-shoes on Saturday thank god. Wasn't running very fast because the rain was horrible.

O-training in Three Rock. Not running fast just focusing on hitting the controls and getting the best routes. Made 3 mistakes but only adding to maybe 1minute. Really enjoyed this and good technical training.
