Auckland champs long...real solid at the start, feeling good, lost first time at 7, felt that I had aimed off sufficently to hit spur above control, but hadn't...think things are a little skewed in there.

Scrappy at 8, then stopped short at 9, a lot going on and some contours missing...turkeyed round though way too much when I couldn't figure it out.

Reasonably solid through to map change, then ran out of puff, lack terrain strength and confidence through the vague stuff...overshot the control after the dunes couldn't make head or tail of the area, seems to be some more hills in there.

loved the weekend though, awesome orienteering, looking forward to oz and playing in some rocks.

Great run by Neil, can't see that time at all, wish you'd taken the head cam on that so we could see what the hell you did.

C • fun 2

auckland champs middle, ended up coming 2nd but gutted to miss opportunity to smash Darren (they don't come around very often).

bit gutted at 3, slowed down, made a careful plan, but then couldn't pick anything up and had to relocate then made management error reading long leg going out of 3 as well...

stupid error at 9, didn't identify solid ap.

other than that just rusty stuff and generally happy after long break from orienteering...plenty of positives to work on, slowing down at the right places and keeping consistent.

tennis with the boys up at Tupare, nice court, looking forward to a 10 set battle with Neil and smashing any of the other random little midgets or gimpy adventure racers that fancy themselves at tennis.

unstructured speedplay on beach

Decided on something a bit longer...Brunton Rd - somewhere up Pehiri Rd and back...nice to be biking on hills.
