Running 18:59 [4] 3.1 mi (6:07 / mi) +70m 5:43 / mi
Blackhill parkrun - 1st, 18.59
Tough course. Went wrong on 1st lap, cost me 40s, but was still well clear, think sub 18 would have been possible, if only just. Lovely park and event.
1 to go in the NE...

Rather jaded after last night, so kept it relaxed and stopped a few times to check route once it became clear I was comfortably going to get them all

MDOC Sale East - 1st
Took it fairly steady to begin with
Tricky, kept changing my mind about the NW section.
Arrived at a decision point with 20 mins left, do I sweep round the far east section and get all the 60s or turn for home. Based on having more time than I thought in Macclesfield, ploughed on and was spectacularly late, though I worked out I gained 17 points from it, good thing I speeded up then.

Rothwell a/c
Absolutely freezing, so it felt as if we were dawdling, we weren't, which would explain why I felt bad in patches.

Orienteering 1:01:00 [3] 7.0 mi (8:43 / mi) +130m 8:14 / mi
Northcliffe and Heaton (Blue) 1st, 43.45
Did Blue to try and enjoy myself - it worked.
Big distance difference between Brown and Blue, and the Brown course looked grim, looping back on itself at least 3 times.
Still made a few mistakes, notably #9 where using a compass might have actually helped, but I had a lot of fun out there, which is what is about for me, as I'll never be that good, I'm sure most of the people below me navigated better than me.
