Orienteering race (Sydney Summer Series 24) 47:16 [4] 8.28 km (5:43 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nexus 7
Mermaid Pool (Manly Vale)
Another average run. Couldn't decide which way to go, finally deciding to go anti-clockwise, not sure it was the best way to go (5,15,4,21, 24,12, 22, 23, 13, 30, 7, 16, 26). By the time I was heading up to 18 it was getting dark as the storm started to roll in, 28 was ok. Real problems with 19, so tempting to run across the school playing field. By the time I was looking for the path to 25 the light was fading rapidly so it was slow going along the bush track. Grabbed 14 on the way in to finish just over 2 mins late to end up with a lowly 390. Good course on a new map.

Orienteering race (State League 2 (NSW sprin) 17:08 [4] 2.97 km (5:46 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nexus 7
Uni of NSW - Hard 2A (M50)
Good courses on a new map with route choices galore. Not a bad run to come second but still 2.15 behind Mike Burton. A few wobbles; 10, 11 and 16, lost me some time but nothing like to closing the gap. As always I let the family down with my 2nd place with the other 3 winning fridge magnets for their 1st places! Not convinced the distance from my garmin is anywhere close to reality.

Event: Sydney Sprint Weekend
10 AM
Orienteering race 14:38 [4] 3.5 km (4:11 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Wave Nexus 7
Sydney Uni Open Relay - leg 1
Some confusion about who my 'new' team member was meant I went off on the first leg rather than second having to play catch up, certainly got he adrenalin pumping. Reasonanbly clean run with only a few hesitations. Came into transition without really knowing who I'd be handing over to, it ended up being Jayne who got to run one of her courses in anger. We finished 8th but with Jayne's obvious knowledge were ineligible. Distance a guess as I didn't start the garmin due to the chaos at the start.
Good runs from the other three family members who were in NOL teams, especially Nea who was drafted in at the last minute aged only 9, must be a record.
A slickly run Big Foot event with good courses.

The Botany Bay Gift - Course 2A (M50)
Very sketchy through the first 6 'sand dune' controls not really getting to grips with the map. Kept on pulling up short when I saw a control that invariably wasn't mine, seemed to have trouble judging my running speed due to the sand. Once out of the dunes the course became a lot easier with faster running. Not a great result.
