Orienteering race 1:31:24 *** 9.99 km (9:09 / km) +441m 7:30 / km
ahr:150 max:170 shoes: Inov8 O-Roc 350
Six Days day 4, Torinturk. M40L: 8.7km +325m.
Better today. Open moorland, the type of O that I can actually do (from time to time), none of those horrible trees. Nav pretty easy, too, TBH. Still pretty rough and tough underfoot, though. I went round in survival mode, 75-80%, and probably only made about 3 minutes of actual mistakes; I was just too slow. I'd have been happier if I was 10 minutes quicker, which is probably about as good as I can get with poor control flow and hesitant navigation, but at least I actually enjoyed it today! Pouring rain at the start and occasionally thereafter (it got nicer for later starters) but once on the go it made little difference.
