Running race (O race) 53:40 [5] 5.6 km (9:35 / km) +160m 8:23 / km

Blean Wood - Saxons Blue
Disappointing race, did at least change from brown to blue (only 7 runners), 10mins errors!! 2.Diffiicult to run, took bearing halfway but too late lost 1.5, 3. Did 180 error lost another 1.5, 5 somehow lost 30s on simple field edge. 6-12 error free and running very strongly 13. AP was track bend but turned out to be gradual bend and should have waited to mid-point curve, control was on a tiny rhoddy bush surrounded by more prominent unmarked thickets, it seems it was a well known/used control feature and most people knew about (-3.30). 18. Relocated near control, but failed to see banks that fitted exactly further uphill on map, blind even with bifocals (-2.30). Was running well enough for 43mins, doubly frustrating. Keen to go back again, great, natural woodland, runnable Kent area (oxmorone? - there some others as well), worth the drive even if made a right horlicks of it.

Running warm up/down 8:00 [1]

Brief WU, no WD.
Major accident on the M25 near Leatherhead on way home, around 4 cars ahead, van flipped onto its roof (roof completely collapsed), amazingly the driver escaped with bad head wound and cuts to hands. Helicopter, plus 12 other accident vehicles.
