Orienteering race 1:03:29 [4] 3.0 mi (21:10 / mi)
shoes: Innov8 X-Talon 212 (2)
Day 4. 3.3km, 105m (ha ha).
It's all Putin's fault. After a 3 hour drive to avoid Putin's route into Kranjska Gora and a 20 min cable car ride to the start it was a struggle up the first hill. Couldn't work out what was up and what was down in the carst terrain. Coped okish for 5 controls then it all went pear shape. Left the hill in slightly the wrong direction and ended up on the wrong spur. Found #7 looking for #6 but didn't twig for over 10 mins! Race over i jogged in. Longest mpk ever? Dave did 41.
