Orienteering race 31:52 [5] 6.2 km (5:08 / km) +210m 4:24 / km
shoes: VJ I-roc
British Relays
Ben put in a heroic effort on first leg, coming back in the mix despite looking dead after the individual yesterday. Had DEE and NOC just behind and EUOC/FVO a minute ahead. Ran hard up the first hill with Olly Williams and got the first one fine. Saw Rich punch 2 quite a way ahead and realised he must have had a shorter gaffle. Pushed hard to catch him up and was close by 3 but then got dragged off line to 4 and struggled to relocate, losing at least a minute and letting Rich get away despite him having a longer gaffle. Closed a bit over the next half of the course with Dan Stansfield for company, but kept making small misses and took a shite route through the marsh to 18. In the end handed over to Aidan in 4th, over 2 minutes down on CLOK, with GG breathing down his neck. A solid team performance to finish 5th. Will be a shame to lose Ben next year!

Orienteering race 1:07:06 [3] 7.0 km (9:35 / km) +280m 7:59 / km
shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 340
British Champs, Blue, 1st (mp)
I'm too soft to do an M21E course on this sort of area so decided to save some cash and run Blue instead. Was just taking it steady and aiming to nail the navigation, which I basically did. The exception being #6 where I turned down a ride too early adding an extra 750m to the course, and the penultimate control where I didn't realise I'd already crossed a ride and went way too far left. Didn't punch the final control on purpose.

OUCCC session with Aidan, Alex Howard and a few others.
3 sets of 400,300,200 with jog/walk recovery to the start of the next rep. 3 mins between sets. Got dragged around by Alex who was going pretty quick. Haven't done a short session like this in ages and my calves feel awful.

Summer series, Wittenham Clumps, 1st
Pretty foul weather but fortunately it was underplanned. Best course I've run here, mainly because it barely used the woods, still got savaged by nettles though. No real mistakes and won by a minute or two over Ben.
