Orienteering race 1:30:36 [4] 13.97 km (6:29 / km) +560m 5:24 / km
shoes: Roclite 315
NZ Long
Butchers Dam, Earnscleugh
Similarish to mt ross, but a bit steeper.
Feeling a bit better today. Slow up to 9, did some clothing alterations, to make my pants shorter. Had incircle prolbems at 11. But generally hitting everything very cleanly, even suprising myself at times. I think it helped to have a danish guy on a bungy from 16, as I enjoy the added pressure.
Reasonble happy with this race, not my type of terraine - fast & open- but I enjoyed it, and only suffered a bit physically from being sick. much better than yesterday.
Winner Carsten 72.53 me + 17.43
Pity that the 1st control was orginally wrong (thanks for moving it jamie) and that it,was so short.

Orienteering race 44:59 [4] 4.56 km (9:52 / km) +290m 7:29 / km
shoes: VJ Intergrator
Middle - Bannockburn
Started OK, went up a huge earth wall to 2, maybe some dodgy route choices. Felt very slow, breathing difficult. Then when going to 10, completly bottled it, went way left, and then relocated wrongly, lost about 3.5 mins, my worst mistake in a while. got caught by jack, and was with aiden who had been with me since 2. After that just suffered pyshically to finish.
Nice terraine, spectualar setting, in amongst the vines, overlooking the lake, if it was forested it would've been awesome.
Winner Ross 32.25, me + 12.34 20/29
The highlight of the day was beating middleditch in poker - despite all his training.

Orienteering race 19:15 [5] 2.49 km (7:44 / km) +50m 7:02 / km
shoes: VJ Intergrator
NZ champs, Sprint - WRE
Roxburgh Tailings
forest Sprint, Bit shakey through the first 3, then nearly took a bad route choice to 4 (straight) before bailing out to the track. After that just slow, james went past up to 11, couldn't stick with him at all. Slightly bad route choice to spectator, and non optimum at end. Probably only 30 s mistakes all up ,but felt pretty crap, as still havn't recovered. so happy with race given circumanstances. Not running fast probably helped the nav
Winner Carsten, 14.53, me + 4.22 14/30
Merz had pre run at in ~13.30
