Event: Venice Street Orienteering Meet
 

Venice Street OL - had a great weekend and also quite a good race. I don't think it would have been possible to run much faster, this was really all I could give. Very few mistakes (street racing is my favourite form of OL) and only one route choice that cost me more than 10s mistake. In fact I believe my perfect time to be about 61 min only, so not bad.

6th place overall in Men 35 - not my personal best in Venice - but still very pleasing for the form I'm currently in.

Men 19/20, Men 35 - Splits

No run for the 3 days for Venice, in order to recover. The long run on Wednesday hit me harder than I thought, and so I wanted to rest properly before the race on Sunday.

Had a long run with Warti - we ran round the see which is quite flat, so we ran just a bit faster in the beginning. However, old fat man really had to strain the last 5 / 6 km's - it was quite tough for me (first run over 20 km for a VERY long time). Also the weather got quite cool and I could really feel that.

Route : From me to Warti, then counter clockwise round the see, incl. the extension, back to warti, back to me.

And just for the record, it was a 17d, 3r (all found, and chased, by Aisha) 13c run :)

AN ABSOLUTE RECORD! 29d 8c 3r run, who'll believe that.

Route: School to Warti house, Neumarkt, Neufahrn, Keinberg resturant, back straight.

Was really nice run, keep busy by seeing so many deer :) The weather was quite fresh - felt OK, but the legs were heavy on the hills.
