Event: OAWA Long Champs
9 AM
Orienteering race (Long Distance Champs) 53:54 [4] 6.59 km (8:10 / km) +185m 7:10 / km
shoes: Innovates
Into the great wide open spaces of Frazzle Rock, what a contrast to Saturday.
Had a clean run, was lucky at 2 when I was not fully in contact the control popped up in front of me. Caught Rob West around 5 and then had him breathing down my neck the rest of the course but managed to keep in front of him. Slight wobble on 7 when I was in the next gully but worked it out quickly and only lost a few seconds. Hard grunt up the track to the last control with Ed the Treasurer puffing and panting in time with me.
Good to get a win, I think the first time for a few years I have taken out a state champs.
