Orienteering race (QBIII Day 3) 40:14 [3] 4.9 km (8:13 / km) +140m 7:11 / km
Middle Distance at Gardens of Stone
So many little mistakes! and also struggled in the vague slopes. Although my result was alright, was really annoyed with myself for my concentration and navigation in the race.
Mistakes:
2- stopped one gully short, and I knew that I still needed to go one further. Ended up too high in the next gully though and wasted time searching in the wrong patch of green
Lost: 1min 30sec
12- approached the cliff from the wrong side and wasted time climbing up between boulders when there was no need to
Lost: 20 sec
15- in the same area that number 2 was. Bearing from previous control was shocking and missed the dam that I was planning on seeing. Ended up in the same gully I stopped in on the way to number 2, and realised I was 2 contours too high and 200m too early
Lost: 2min 45sec
Great weekend of racing though

Orienteering race (QBIII Day 2) 1:00:59 [3] 7.7 km (7:55 / km) +240m 6:51 / km
Long Distance at Falnash
Was having such an amazing run today. Was focused on my exit direction and planning ahead and my speed felt so good!
Mistakes
8- lost my focus here, too busy worrying about getting water at the next control and where I was in relation to the start. As a result, I picked up the wrong track and was running 90 degrees in the wrong direction
lost: 3min :(
Other than that, would have made for such a good race!

Was too focused on trying to run at 'sprint' pace.

lost: 25 sec
5- hesitant as to what direction I was approaching the termite mound from
lost: 15sec
10- pulled up way too short and ended up bailing out to the track
lost: 60sec

Intervals 40:00 [3]
6x short
4x long
Felt good in today's set. It seems that the weeks that I do the uni run on a Wednesday before are the weeks I feel best at intervals.
