Orienteering race 17:35 [4] *** 3.9 km (4:31 / km)
spiked:17/20c shoes: New Balance M870v3
Sprint Series 3 at Olympic Park
Enjoyable course and appreciated the controls being attached to stands. Was tentative early on, losing about a minute through the tricky short legs 3-6. Mistakenly punched 17 on the way to 6. Lost another 30secs on indirect routes to 7 and 19. Otherwise had a good run, 8th place, 3mins behind Aidan.
Starting to get the hang of sprint/line courses but need to get more consistency in my split rankings - ranged from 1st (8 & 10) to 88th (19). Quick decision making on the shorter technical sections needs improvement and more time spent planning ahead during the longer open running sections will help.

Orienteering race 55:36 [4] ** 10.2 km (5:27 / km)
spiked:25/28c (sick) shoes: New Balance M870v3
SSS at Mort Bay
Nice hilly harbour side course. Felt ok for the first 30mins but then was sick for last 25min... Did an anti-clockwise loop starting with 7 then Ballast Point (30-10-20), and 26-19. Lost 30 secs running up to 29 from below it. 6-18-28 (lost another 30 secs going back too high exiting 18). Clean through 8-9-17 then a slight error (10secs) looking too early for 5. 15-4-24-14 then unfortunately stomach cramps set in and had to walk. Not sure if it was something I ate, but felt similar to East Lindfield run on Nov-19. Couldn't find any toilets and really needed to go so only option was to go in the harbour near 23-13. Walked 22-2 and 12 via the sand. Stomach felt better so managed to jog to 25-11-21. Jumped in the harbour again at Mort Bay. Luckily had a towel and change of clothes for the drive home.
Still managed an ok score considering, 580 in 55.36 = 470. But even if well and with a 'clean' run, doubt I would have got the much needed 100 points in OM with Julian Dent scoring 570. Although my plan to skip 3 would have saved some time. 9 was probably another not worth it. Richard 550, Andy 530 and Brooner 520.
