Orienteering race (Long) 1:41:25 [4]
shoes: x talon 212
classic at Waioneke. Started off pretty steady, av route to 3, ran right above 7, so lost a bit of time there. Could of done a bit better on my route to 8, but didn't see it at the time, probs lost a min, fighting rhtough green, when I didn't really need to.Stuffed up 9, losing a min there.bad route and slightlyoff on 10, losing another min there. Felt like a really slow route to 13, thinking going around the bottom would of been quicker, lost time on most there. Stuffed up my route to 14, then lost atleast another min just being slightly below the control.slow to 16. didn't read 19 right, thought it was slightly in the forest so lost over a min searching in the forest, turns out it was right in the open, oops. Stuffed up my route to 23. Stopped right above 24 and didn't see it so lost atleast 30 sec there. slow on 25, then stuffed up 26, didn't read it very well and was searching too low for it, lost well over a min there. So yeah was a very messy run really, countless mistakes. Wasn't too bad up to 13, but then kind of fell apart. On the positive side, didn't have any big mistakes and fitness wise I felt really good,struggled a wee bit up the hills, but never got too tired, and felt fine at the end
