Cold Ash. 4th. Was really cautious to begin as the ditches looked quite tricky. The first 3 went well but then started running off towards 5 from 3. Realised when I looked at my control descriptions but it really annoyed me. Struggled then to find a way through the denser bushes. Entered a little early on 7, and hesitated before 14. Otherwise felt like I was running quite well and pleased to be only 5 mins down. 4th overall.

A bit rushed as I didn't leave enough time.

Hambleden. 5th. Started steady but then lost 2 mins on 3. Took a bearing from an obvious feature (large depression next to the path), but I was still too high. Hit the re-entrant and had to run back. The rest went pretty well although I was a little high on 13 and not sure I took the best routechoice to 14...

University of Reading. 5th. OK run but could have been cleaner. 2 was well hidden so didn't see it straight away. Got a bit disorientated on the way to 3 but managed to sort myself out. Missed the optimum route into and out of 5. The rest went OK but I didn't plan ahead very well for 11 so hesitated before working out where to go. Think I need to do some sprint specific technical training.
