Orienteering race (Anagach Day 6) 1:35:58 [5] **** 8.0 km (12:00 / km)
shoes: O Falcon

Dave Peel map!! I seem to have problems on these. Can't make things make sense. Messed up 2 & 4. Then generally ok apart from 14 and getting really tired towards the end so couldn't make much use of the tracks that were available. Overall slightly disappointing week.

Orienteering race (Camerory Day 5) 1:32:15 [5] **** 7.7 km (11:59 / km) +195m 10:38 / km
shoes: O Falcon

One poor control, then nearly missed the next one out completely. Heather on the moorland was horrible, just couldn't run - it was worse than in even the grottiest bits of the wood. It helped having a late start.

Orienteering race (Culbin Day 4) 1:15:54 [5] **** 8.1 km (9:22 / km) +75m 8:57 / km
shoes: O Falcon

Enjoyed today - again felt that it was a race. Very careful in light green areas. Still not in top 50 though but at least seem to have caught up the midfield pack in the results.

Orienteering race (Kingussie sprint) 22:08 [5] *** 3.0 km (7:23 / km) +70m 6:36 / km
shoes: Gray Saucony

Loved it. Still finished near the bottom but at least I felt I was racing. Caught up one minute man at 6 but he ran off cos was much younger. One not optimal route choice lost maybe 30 seconds.

Orienteering race (Inshriach West Day 3) 1:29:26 [5] 8.3 km (10:47 / km) +190m 9:40 / km
shoes: O Falcon

Not a bad race. Quite pleased but struggled in the terrain. Really need to improve terrain running skills. One poor control when didn't relocate well and ended up running wrong way down a ride. Shouldn't really be making this type of mistake.

Orienteering race (Balavil Day 2) 1:12:21 [4] **** 7.9 mi (9:09 / mi) +330m 8:06 / mi
shoes: O Falcon

Poor run. One awful control in light green after 45mins - took 15 minutes to find. Then got worse in grotty bracken and forest. Starting first didn't help either.

Event: Scottish 6-Days

Orienteering race (Alvie - Day 1) 1:26:17 [5] **** 7.8 km (11:04 / km) +345m 9:04 / km
shoes: O Falcon

Ok start but wasn't going fast enough. Made some daft errors as well. Given this was the latest start of the week probably needed to have run faster.
