Orienteering race (LOK HampsteadHeath Frolic) 48:11 [4] *** 8.4 km (5:44 / km) +123m 5:21 / km
ahr:161 max:234 shoes: Oroc 340
OK run. A few small silly mistakes that a summer of sprint races should have sharpened up by now, me thinks. Loss of confidence caused unnecessary hesitations a couple of times. A couple of controls described as being on the top of earthbanks coule have been 20m either side, but that's ok. Ended up using 17 to relocate from missing 16 nearby in a fairly indistinct set of paths in the NW corner. Meant that I hadn't planned the long leg to 18, so took a path run at the start to plan the rest. May have cost a few seconds, but no big deal.
Enjoyed having to sprint for the frolic finish, and then picking it back up for the extension. Probably the closest I'll get to feel like Cavendish sprinting to win both the intermediate and final sprints on the Tour... :)
