Orienteering 2:02:12 [4] 23.06 km (5:18 / km)
shoes: VJ Bold
Tiomila
Leg 4 - Long Night, Unforked
In the Kratov train (although I didn't realise at the time). The pace would fluctuate between hard and very hard.
Unfortunately about 25% of the way into the long leg (~5km leg!) I twisted my ankle (even with more tape than normal of it). Hobbled along for a minute getting detached from the group before the pain subsided. Almost recaught them over the next 2km of field running but once we hit the forest again I lost them and couldn't stay with the next group either as was limited by my ankle in the terrain.
Ended up running a good chunk alone but was caught by a more moderate pace group for the last loop after spectator.
Team finished 22nd. If I'd kept up with the group we'd probably have been about 10th...

Minley
2nd Leg
Almost didn't make it. Felt pretty unwell once I got back to the accommodation yesterday, eventually being sick, think I ate something dodgy after finishing the long. Woke up at 2am feeling slightly better and decided I needed to eat something to give myself a chance of running in the morning. A bit more food at 5am and some breakfast at 8. Still wasn't feeling fantastic but we didn't really have someone to replace me.
Nixon put in a solid run and set me off in front of the main contenders. Felt like I had just finished a 20km race that morning, my body did not want to go fast. Was running round with some guys including JamesA and then at 7 saw Matt closing in fast. I made a mistake to 8 so lost him then found myself on the back of AliM and for the rest of the course I was just trying my best to hold onto him...
Fortunately it was enough for the second fresh M35 of the team to seal the win.
