Orienteering race 1:01:28 [4] 7.0 mi (8:47 / mi)
shoes: VJ Integrator (blue)

JK Day 2. Long race, Cold Ash.
M55L 9.7km 260m.
Good start and pretty much perfect as far as #12 where I caught Mike Johnson. Hadn't planned ahead for the route choice to #13 so lost a little time before deciding on the urban route to the right. Lost more time turning right a couple of tracks early on the first part of the leg. Mike had taken the route to the left and it was reassuring to arrive at #13 together. That was how it stayed for the rest of the race. It did help maintain the pace as I was tiring and we gradually added to the train as we went along. Handy to have Big Jon show us where #25 was. Finished feeling that I hadn't left anything out there. Pleased to take the win, although this time by just a handful of seconds from Tim.

1st place overall. I've now won the JK in my first year as a M35, M40, M45 and M55. As a M50 I had to wait until my second year because I stupidly tried to do the Sprint in my first year ;-)

Warm up on the model map.
No warm down at all. Mistake. Must be more disciplined in future!
