Orienteering race 20:03 [3] 2.3 mi (8:43 / mi) +42m 8:15 / mi
Penistone Hill chasing sprint - 8th - 20:03
A tricky area, two big mistakes.
Plus first two far too hesistant adjusting to 1:7500 so stopped short on both.
In past I would have ran straight past, still trying ti find right balance.
Overtook Dave to 3, but he cut gap by cutting across sheep trod I didn't see.
3-4 was good
4-5, first big error, looking at GPS ran right up to it without seeing it, so diverted west and stumbled across Dave also lost, so assumed he must be right and it was nearby to this area. After a bit of running about decided to stop and look at map and eventually got to the right place after several stops.
6 a little hesistant but OK
7 in order to keep running ran down quarry and up side, could have done with staying high
8 9 10 11 12 fine as evidenced by the splits, but helped by the number of runners now about
13 went AWOL, for some reason crossed past lake instead of turning right at the lake, can't explain why I did that and struggled to realise where I had gone wrong at this point, except it's obvious once the race is run
Jogged in after that as knew Dave had gone past me.
