Event: YBT Final
Orienteering race (YBT Final) 33:02 [5] *** 5.2 km (6:21 / km) +70m 5:57 / km
spiked:14/14c shoes: Salomon Contagrip Fell Shoes
Up at 5.45am back at 8.45pm and exams tomorrow..
Very muddy lol but mud = fun.
Took four hours to get there then an hours wander and it was time to run, I did my warm up then went.
I caught the guy 1 minute ahead of me before control 1 and he stuck with me until about 9 i made a mistake going to 3 and 7 both of them because I was orientated wrong and got to the wrong path, not sure about some of the route choices either but I want have lost much time on that. At 8 i caught Tamsin and she stuck with me to near the end which was good for motivation but not a big impact I would think. Overall about 2minutes lost on what was mainly a path runners course so mixed views.

Orienteering (Loxley Common-SYO trainin) 1:50:00 [3] *** 4.7 km (23:24 / km)
spiked:26/29c shoes: Salomon Contagrip Fell Shoes
SYO training on Loxley Common. 'twas good =]
I did the 'hard' warm-up, which wasn't so hard, then a 1:2000 simplification exercise which was good apart from 5 where I took the wrong route and missed it because of the bracken. After that I did a bearings exercise and a route choice exercise which went well.
The last thing was a relay, i was in team me-ryan-yasmin(e?). We set of in the mass start wrong way cus the coaches tricked us. I ended up getting to 1 first then leading most of the course until 9 where i did a parallel path error and I was looking for the wrong feature. Zac and Aidan overtook me but I overtook Zac to win by two meters at the end =)
