Orienteering race 1:49:50 [5] 10.3 km (10:40 / km) +350m 9:07 / km
Canadian long champs. not a WRE, so they made the winning time for W21E the same as M21E... so 90-100mins, which had the makings of a very tough day out. Pretty happy with my run. one decent mistake on the way to 4 where I couldnt interpret the map properly, and not super confident in the first part which was all big negative terrain, steep, thick and low vis (perfect combination for confusing aussies). the second part of the course was more route choice, but heaps of steep climbs. held it together ok, and avoided mistakes in the super vague last loop. really enjoyed this course - I really like classics that take you on a big adventure. ended up 3rd overall, but 12mins behind a finnish girl (who took 10 of those in the first half of the course where I didn;t know what I was doing). one race to go.
