Running warm up/down 18:00 [2] 2.2 mi (8:11 / mi)
Running intervals 40:00 [5] 6.5 mi (6:09 / mi) +110m 5:51 / mi
Pretty decent, now my XC season is over!
12 mins was solid, consistent 5:48 pace
Took a couple of the 2.5s to get going mainly thanks to everyone else hammering the first minute but was going well by the end
6 mins was a greuller but felt like I was moving well and was making up ground on those ahead by the end.
Running warm up/down 20:00 [2] 2.5 mi (8:00 / mi) +15m 7:51 / mi

Running 30:00 [3] 4.0 mi (7:30 / mi)
Running 28:15 [3] 3.3 mi (8:34 / mi) +90m 7:54 / mi
Urban Orienteering 41:00 [5] 6.0 mi (6:50 / mi) +100m 6:30 / mi
Legs were moving fairly fast but it was hard work and not quite with top gear functioning.
Again underestimated how far I could cover, knew it would be good to finish with the loop to the south of the start so made sure I got that in, but had 4 mins spare.
In reality could have got one or two more, but no more than that within 45 mins.
Surprised to come first given spare time and the speed several people were running I came across in the mid section. They must have got tired as musn't have been due to navigation as can't really be classed as orienteering anyway.

Urban Orienteering 1:14:12 [5] 11.0 mi (6:45 / mi) +30m 6:41 / mi
Pretty please with that, hit a good hard pace early on and settled on the first 2/3rd route with no real issues, executed it well. Was convinced I was going to be too late to get the cluster to the west, but even so gambled on the north route to the west side with a view to getting one or two of them, gambled again and got most of them, and was still back in time.
Only downside was I hadn't picked up more points by doing an alternative last 2, but had never considered anything other than the shortest route back from the west at any stage

Running warm up/down 20:30 [3] 2.7 mi (7:36 / mi)
Running race 27:29 [5] 5.0 mi (5:30 / mi) +20m 5:26 / mi
Can't complain really
Wanted to break 27 but it was quite windy, 4th miles was 10s slower than the rest
Great race, good course, deep field
Moved through from 400m in and nobody passed me, but that was more cos they were slowing down than anything
Thankfully really hurt myself last 2 miles, was in pieces at the end (unlike other recent races) so can't argue despite thinking I would be able to break 27. Enjoyed it, all told
Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.3 mi (7:42 / mi)
