Event: British Sprint Championships
Warm up/down 20:00 [2]
slept:6.5
around and about
Orienteering - Urban race (British Sprints Heat 1A) 16:13 [4] **** 2.6 km (6:14 / km) +25m 5:57 / km
spiked:17/23c shoes: X-talon 212 (2)
Just excited to be running fastish. No focus or thought. Didn't look at map enough and didn't take in and act upon what I saw on the ground.
#1 went right when everyone else went left (90deg error) then couldn't place myself. (40secs?)
#5 ran past it. Not too much lost but sloppy. If head wasn't already gone it was in Thirsk by now.
#20 in the prefabs. no plan of attack once over the fence. Sloppy leaving it as well (30 secs)
Several other 5secs as well. Way down.

Same as before really.
#2 round the houses (15)
#7 went in a building too early, then didn't see stairs and went left(?!) (20secs total) Ironic that at the only point I planned ahead it caused me to miss the control (then I fucked up the next few legs anyway!)
#10 no plan going into 9. Caught out 3 times down the stairs. (40secs min)
#16 left 15 on the red line - not to the bridge over the lake
#17 ran right past the big obvious building the control was on. 15secs.
So it was all pretty slapdash over the 2 races but I'm not too fussed. I'm better than this and I just need to get in the right mindset and maybe use a bit more haste less speed until nav catches up with my improved speed.
