Orienteering 40:26 [3] 7.55 km (5:21 / km) +38m 5:13 / km
ahr:158 max:171
One word.....disappointing.
This was set up for me to have a good run (my type of terrain), but it was over in the first 4 controls. Top 3.... no chance but a 7th place run should have been achievable. I felt very slow until 5 also. Breakfast was present and I gave it 4 hours. After 5 I felt great and hit everything ok.
The Breakdown...
1. poor route choice 30secs
2. Horrific mistake not helped by poor eyesight. Failed to pick up buildings and park benches on map. 3mins. (This was by far the easiest leg)
4. I hit the path to the left by 20m. I could sense it, but gambled to the right and realised at the path junction. 45secs maybe more.
10. Poor route choice. Hit the chain link fence and ran right to the roundabout. Should've gone left towards the playing fields. 1min maybe more.
Total lost=5mins 15secs.
10th place. Winner Sergei Ryzhkov 11mins 30secs ahead.
