Running warm up/down 16:01 1.32 km (12:07 / km)
ahr:101 max:137 shoes: Inov8 210 July 2018
No warmdown.
Orienteering race 39:34 6.51 km (6:05 / km) +121m 5:34 / km
ahr:127 max:156 shoes: Inov8 210 July 2018
Leg two, went out about ten mins or so down in 6th. Very scrappy run with small miss(wrong block) at #1 then a bigger one at #2, couldn’t initially find pit at #6, didn’t see mtb track special purple symbol en route to #14 so almost two mins gone failing to work out I had stopped a path short, then at the end went to wrong flag initially at both #15 & #16.
35mins would have been okay and anything better would have been good. 39mins was not good!
Inevitably, just like virtually every other race this year, Ben ran a time within seconds of my time, and we ended up 6th. The Rog-Jase-Will team was second behind SYO. One of four silver medal teams today (Open, M18, MW70 were the others).

ahr:130 max:159 shoes: Inov8 210 July 2018
M50L, 2nd place.
Winner James Logue 48mins (!)
A six minute gap in front but 15 people in five-ish mins behind, so v pleased to end up at the front of the non-James pack.
Scrappy start missing #1 then offline to #3 and #4 before also missing #5. Not too much time lost but not to grips with the map at all, struggling with the running too so maybe too much focus on getting moving better rather than actually finding the flags cleanly...
Tough little climb up to #6 and started to move better from there, decent though far from perfect after that other than just after passing Steve W when I dropped some time at #12: went too low after the crossing point and then once I corrected, the depression was not quite as expected relative to the stones and could not find it for maybe 30secs.
Edit: looks like last part of my route to 14 was not the best either, went to the right of the stones beneath the cliffs with unnecessary down and back up. Maybe should have hugged the cliffs and stayed left of the stones, perhaps 20-30s quicker.
Happy with the result though, no chance of beating James so this was the best outcome on offer!

Orienteering race 14:40 3.08 km (4:46 / km) +54m 4:23 / km
ahr:142 max:172 shoes: Inov8 210 July 2018
Out in third ahead of Roger, down to fourth after a horrific description misread at #4 costing 40secs or so. Was going to the right place until I checked the description!
Chasing fruitlessly after that, not helped by a couple more 5-10sec incompetences.
Running warm up/down 9:19 1.2 km (7:47 / km)

Note
(sick) (rest day)
Regretting lack of any worthwhile stretching amongst the last week of lethargy, my achilles seems more rather than less niggly for the rest!
