Orienteering race 48:29 [4] 3.5 mi (13:51 / mi)
shoes: VJ Integrator (yellow)
British Middle Champs, Drumkeeragh Wood.
M21E 4.9km 230m.
9th place, +12 mins to Nathan Lawson.
Well within my winner plus 50% target so got to be happy with that. I think running the Irish races last weekend was probably good preparation. Coped well with the slightly iffy map (no lidar) and managed to minimise my time losses. Very happy to retire from British Elite racing with a top 10 :)

Orienteering race 23:19 [4] 2.0 mi (11:39 / mi)
shoes: VJ Integrator (yellow)
Irish Relay Champs, Tottenham Estate.
Leg 3 of Handicap 12 for SYO. Paul T, Nick B, me.
3.0km.
Comfortable win after CorkO had trouble. I definitely got the best deal on the medium course. Both long and short had more in the rough forest.
