ahr:171 max:180 spiked:16/17c shoes: VJ
Was a bit nervous beforehand and probably went out a bit fast. Missed the first one, not knowing what the veg was supposed to look like. After that though was clean and running well.
Coming into 2 saw Peter Bray from Durham missing it and though I was still in the race somewhat. Caught back up with Andrew Lindsay and we were running together behind Peter until 6. Could see the rest of the teams ahead in the open across to 6. Went left on the road to 8, but had a bad line into it. Lucked out with the faster gaffle for 9-10 and came into 11 with Peter and the SHUOC guy just in front. Tried to hang on up the hill to 12 and ran as hard as I could down to 13 and 14, where I saw Simon and the combined services guy coming in the wrong way.Had a race with them up the hill to 16, still seeing the Durham and SHUOC guys in front. Stayed ahead of Simon but the combined services guy just stayed ahead of me, to leave me in 7th.
Oleg brought us back up to 2nd, not too far down on Oxford, just ahead of SHUOC, Nixon then finished in 3rd.
Woo bronze medal!

A tough area, runnability was mostly good but there were bad patches which tired me out. Felt mostly prety good running, even on some of the steeper hills, which was a nice feeling. Did miss some time, more than I had thought originally on the day, about 3 minutes in total. Also probably didn't take the best route choices on the longer legs. Should have stayed in the forest on the way to 5, and gone left to 11. Otherwise it was lack of concentration mostly, need a bit more longer orienteering practice.
