Orienteering 30:24 [5] ***
spiked:12/13c shoes: Inov8 MudClaw

Peg race at Cherrabah. Really fast, with a longer leg each time you got to a control in the front pack, the goal was to get all 8 clothespins. I only got 5 but it was pretty intense.

Orienteering race 1:57:30 [3] **** 7.5 km (15:40 / km) +260m 13:21 / km
spiked:8/14c shoes: Inov8 MudRoc

Orienteering race on Cascades map. Had a really hard time running through the terrain as the bare rock was really slick after the rain. Saw a kangaroo wipe out hard. Accidentally slipped down a 3m cliff at one of the controls. Made a 12 minute error with Fraser and got hopelessly lost. Also made a few smaller errors about 2230 in total (including the 12 minute one). Really brutally physical in general

spiked:9/13c shoes: Inov8 MudRoc

Orienteering race at Cascades map in Queensland. It was really hard running with a ton of rock and I made a 5 minute error and a 7 minute error, with an estimated error time of 14:30. Alright result for first time in granite.

Running 20:00 [1]

I had a layover in LA and got lost after deciding to take a shortcut back to the bus stop so I panicked and started running. I eventually did make my flight.

spiked:6/10c shoes: Inov8 MudClaw

Orienteering practice course on Dalmuir map. Paths were taken off the map and it was very swampy (over clufts of grass in some parts floating on water 2 feet deep) with lots of mosquitoes. Was quite tricky, but still had fun. Made approximately 1 minute route choice errors on controls 3 and 6 as well as a 15s error on the short leg 8, and a 7.5 min error going down the wrong set of hills and swamps on the final control.

Orienteering 36:51 [5] 5.3 km (6:57 / km)
shoes: Inov8 MudRoc

Park O at Dawson. Got some new shoes today, same brand as my regular o-shoes but lighter and better for trail running and sprint. Skipped control 5 as it was in thick green and I was confronted with a wall of vegetation I didn't feel like going through. Dominated today, as the next closest person was 46 minutes, felt quite fast.

Orienteering race 1:31:54 [3] *** 7.3 km (12:35 / km)
spiked:8/12c shoes: Inov8 MudClaw

Orienteering B Meet at Tiger Lily. Was quite hot out and was not entirely focused for the entire time. Not a very good race at all. Lost 40s on 2, 5 min on 3, 3 min on 9 and a horrible 17min on 6. Started the leg off by going slightly in the wrong direction and then ended up in the wrong valley and over 500m off course with not a clue what I had done wrong (really should have trusted my compass when it said I was going off course). As a positive, managed to have surgical precision on controls 7, 8 and 11, hitting them almost bang on.
