SYO Ramsley Moor Night

Really enjoyed this - mostly completely on my own with no competitors around. Running was little other than steady but again noticeably improved.

Being all on my own led to some confusion at #4 as, after meandering up the hill through rocks and bracken from the previous control and not being able to fit the mapped trees / marsh with what I was seeing on the ground, I begin to have doubts as to whether I was too far north (under the control descriptions). Fortunately I persevered; wandering from patch to patch until the welcome sight of the flag was illuminated. I see now that there are some patchs of trees in the marsh which I didn't spot on the map at the time [4 min]
#5 Some lights had appeared in the distance, so quickly ran on a bearing, aiming off slightly south. The wood seemed to come to an end which wasn't what I was expecting though so I searched fruitlessly further east for a while before realising [90]
#7 Ticked off the first set of gullies, but then happened across a distinct re-entrant and prominent boulder, the first of which I couldn't place and the second suggested I might have overshot. Hesitantly continued which was the correct choice [60]
#13 Came out on the main path further south than intended. Should have used path more after relocating from the patch of marshy green [60]

7mins 30s lost but enough to scrape a victory over Parkino.

C • Watch the GPS race 3

3s, then singles vs John G. 3-6, 5-5?
Suffering predominantly in right glute from badminton - encouraging but painful.

No match so higher level of play. Managed ok overall I guess.

Orch.

Lots of travelling.
