Brown Course at Calke Abbey
The aim was to focus on the orienteering process and not to run too hard and planning on going out for some extra training afterwards. Worked pretty well and orienteering nicely until I didn't see a path on the map which was hidden by the circle at #18 and lost 10-20s. I then lost 1min on #19 but changing my route choice because of the dense vegetation, cutting in too early and having to create my own tracks through the thick brambles and bracken. Thought I had choosen the wrong way around the lake to the last control but as I lost ~30-40s overshooting and was on 27s behing Hodgo who had the fastest split it seams my route was the better one. Probably because the paths were better and there wasn't lots of public, dogs and prams.
So until 900m from the end it was almost perfect navigationally. Forgot to start watch for HR but it was generally around 160-165 so in the range I was looking for.
