10c shoes: Salomons June 2014

Hard Medium. 10 Controls. Nominal 4.8 km.

No huge screw-ups.
Overshot #2 about 50 m too far east.
Overshot #9 about 100 m too far east.

Ankle continuing to grizzle despite ankle guards.

First time I have ever worn thermal top whilst running an Orienteering race.

KC waited in car until I was finished.

10 AM

Orienteering - Bush (NOY5 Shotgun Avenue) 1:20:21 [1] ** 4.67 km (17:12 / km)
8c shoes: Salomons June 2014

Moderate Long. 8 Controls. Nominal 3.2 km.

With KC.

Overshot #3 about 30 m east.
Mucked around a fair time with #6 in a region I had never been before.

Walking, talking and taking photos so no time pressure.

Started to drizzle at the end, and it was freezing cold, so time to head back home.

1 PM

Note

Sitting in the Commercial Hotel at Morpeth, in front of a combustion fire, eating chilli and garlic prawns with KC was a very nice and relaxing alternative to continuing to brave the arctic chill.
