Orienteering 1:20:48 [3] 9.37 km (8:37 / km) +293m 7:27 / km
shoes: VJ Bold

NSW Long Distance. Finally a map that you could run on, too bad I am useless at running up hills at present. Nothing too remarkable about this course, a few wobbles here and there and getting slow towards the end (both apparent in the splits). Not sure how I was not further behind. Legs very tired going up hills, even tough I was only walking.

Orienteering 48:46 [3] 4.65 km (10:29 / km) +130m 9:12 / km
shoes: VJ Bold

Middle Distance at Gardiner's Gap. Started OK but had trouble getting through the vegetation. Lost a bit on 2 (upper boulder) then just slow. Missed 7 (the pivot, which I missed again at 11). Paul Marsh caught me at 12 and with him until 16 where I went to the wrong rocks. Lost a couple on minutes there and then dropped a couple more on the last 2 (easy) controls.

Tracy Super-Marsh 9 minutes ahead! I am about ready to admit my age after that effort.

EDIT: I've looked at the splits & GPS track and am no longer inconsolable. It looks like I managed to navigate reasonably (most of the time) and my compass was better than usual, I was just unlucky(ish) and then lost my nerve. I might hang around a bit longer, so long as I actually manage to do a race like this well at some point in time...

Hamstrings today. Not feeling a whole lot better than last week, Tuesday is not my day at the moment.

Run 58:52 [3] 10.01 km (5:53 / km) +151m 5:28 / km
shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 14 -new pair

De-burghs bridge loop. Tried a time trial run to see how much I need to improve to reach Paula's 55 minute target. The answer is a lot. This was very hard work and I even stopped at the top of a few climbs for a breather. I might get 2 minutes credit for not doing the short-cut up the northern end of the loop.
