Orienteering race 1:56:35 [4] 14.8 km (7:53 / km) +520m 6:42 / km
shoes: VJ Intergrator
JK Long, UK cup, WRE
Shiellow, detchant, greensheen & cockhaugh, Northumbland
Much nicer area (south of middle area).
A bit rough early on, lost a minute at 4, which was easy and shouldn't have. Leg to 6 was excellent, bashed through straight and was nervous was going to lose time, but didn't. Caught my 3 min man at 7 Matthew Rooke and was together most of the race (he can run but his nav is a bit suss). Some knarly descent to 8. Then caught john (9min) at 11, and got very confused, and lost time. So then me driving a pack, with john abusing me at 14. Hard work heather descent to 15. Then track run to 17. Lost time on 19, I was tiring, and took ages to get out, and then we all missed it. By this time had another irish runner.
Then lost time at 25 (bad plan) and 26 (bad map), and really struggling with distance through to end, but managed to hold matt off. Probably about 4-5 mins of mistakes all up. Just needed to squeez out 30 s to beat tim. I was a bit lucky i was running with others, as i go better under pressure.
So quite pleased. 764 WRE points, now ranked 335 :)
32/53
Winner Oli J 87.29

Orienteering race 52:26 [4] *** 5.4 km (9:43 / km) +260m 7:50 / km
20c shoes: VJ Intergrator
JK Middle, UK cup, WRE
Kyloe Hills, Northumburland
This was the middle, and we made it our team selection for the relays.
Felt slow to start with, had trouble with green on way to 2, and in ciricle. First big mistake on 4 - 55 s, then 10 1.30 s and 12 2.00s
Then got caught by my 2 min man, and picked up quite a bit through to finish.
Really shite race, found the vegetation hard to interpet. There would've been tracking and man shaped holes latter on too. Finished last of bristol boys so not in relay team, so was annoyed. My worst WRE point score ever.
Time 52.26
Winner Oli J 34.47

Event: JK 2009
Orienteering race 20:24 [5] *** 3.2 km (6:22 / km) +10m 6:17 / km
spiked:26/27c shoes: f-lite 335
Jk Sprint Newcastle Uni & Park
Pretty good run, no indivaul mistake over 10 secs. Quite easy though, and sprints aren't really my thing. Nice enough area I thought. Maybe too many 50/50 route choices, which didn't matter.
Got a win past most of the bristol boys not dr bone, but bet tim
20.24 + 3.54 52/130
Winner Ross Morison !! 16.30
