New map made by Shep. The navigation was simple but it is always fun to orienteer in a new area. Having said that it was simple, I still managed to run past the pathway leading up to number 1 by about 50m - I thought I was looking for a road - that will teach me, again, not to ignore the detail. After that I settled into the map, but still didn't push myself hard enough up the hills. Overshot number 14 by about 10m and had to double back. The rock feature was low, and the control flag even lower, but it is a Wednesday event and it doesn't matter. Had a few problems getting over the fence on the way to 15, but manage to roll under instead. Had fun chasing Felicity at the end, but couldn't make up the gap. At least it wasn't getting much bigger.

Robert did 31:05, so even accounting for my mistakes and a couple of short walks up the hill, I don't think I could have beaten that time today. So the score board is now 3-1 to me.
