Orienteering race 1:08:28 [4] 6.0 km (11:25 / km)
shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 280
H3 course at Ngangaguring. Didn't really lose any time at 1 and 2, but was caught at 2 after walking up the hill by Joel McMullen. Then we were virtually together (he racing ahead, me catching him at the controls) until 8 where we both were too low. I recovered first and didn't see him again. OK then until 13 which was a junction on the main creek without a clear attack point. I went in too early and floundered around for a few minutes. Only 3 mins down on the winner despite losing 8-10 mins on the two mistakes.
Different assembly area, not sure it worked too well because of the long, boring last two legs along the creek. Better to have had a longer walk to a start closer to the detail, and the last controls near where the start was.
