orienteering 47:20 [3] *** 5.6 km (8:27 / km)
spiked:10/12c shoes: NVii O shoes
Day 3. Butchered the first control again. Navigated well until I was nearly there and then turned in off the clearing a little bit too early and found another control, down to the fence and tried again only to hit the same wrong control again. Third time lucky, but 5 minutes gone. Went well up until 6, then was too high heading out of the control to 7 and hit the track too far along. Ran along and then down the watercourse. I knew where I was but the detour cost another 2 minutes. Clean after that to the finish.
Some how Bradberried my way to second overall. I wasn’t great, but except for Ted, everyone else was worse. Tim who had been coming second had a shocker and slipped to third.

orienteering 53:40 [4] *** 6.8 km (7:54 / km)

Better effort today, except for third control.
I was one of the late starters and by the time I got to the start station they had run out of control descriptions. They cut one from a map for me, but made me take that map, so no backup. Also they were too small. They were definitely not the minimum size, and I struggled to read them.
First 2 were ok, then made a mess of 3, going too far along the clearing before cutting in, so was then too far south. Wasted 6 minutes.
After that got it back together and no more mistakes. Was really starting to feel the heat after 6, and stopped at all the drinks controls. A couple of controls were too obvious and visible from a long way out.
