Event: Scottish 6-Day
1 PM
Orienteering race 1:01:10 [4] 5.5 mi (11:07 / mi)
shoes: Inov8 Mudclaw (3)
Scottish 5 Days, Day 1. Lossie.
M55L. 7.5km 180m.
Not the best start to my week, blowing 2 mins at the second control. Better thereafter except for the dodgy #19 where I lost around another 2 mins. Somehow clung on to 3rd place. The scoring system certainly worked in my favour today.
Achilles getting sore on the long track runs in the second half.

Coast and Islands Day 6. Lews Castle.
Medium course, 2.6km 80m.
Mispunched. Missed out #15 which was on the direct line between #14 and #16. Ran right past it and must have nearly punched accidentally. Otherwise pretty good. Achilles not bad either although I refused to get into a head to head with Mike P at the end.
So 4 wins and 2 mp's. Lucky it's best 4 from 6 to count...

Coast and Islands Day 5. Torsacleit.
Medium course, 4.9km 240m.
After a week of control picking I've obviously forgotten how to do long legs. Totally unable to relocate on the hilltop at #5. Decided to retire to protect my Achilles for next week. First wet day requiring contact lens.

Coast and Islands Day 4. Tarbert.
Medium course, 2.3km 70m.
Really fun 'forest' Sprint. Bilbo map made perfect sense.
Almost like a rest day for my Achilles. Fine until the final urban section. Slowed right down on the tarmac.

Coast and Islands Day 3. Creag na Bunaig.
Medium course, 4.9km 230m.
Struggling a bit with today's map. What's the point of all those black dots? Anyway I lost a minute or so at #5 and then really lost the plot on #20 binning around 5 mins.
