Orienteering race 15:00 [5] 2.0 mi (7:30 / mi)
I can also throw my hat into the "if only I hadn't f*cked up" ring. Was 12 seconds in the lead at 8 and then spunked this away over the next few controls - muppet!
Closest I have been to being in the mix - at a selection race which was pleasing but could have been so much better!
Orienteering race 40:00 [5] 3.5 mi (11:26 / mi)
Selection Middle race. Graham Ackland summed it up as "scaletrix orienteering", working our way through the bracken. Totally screwed up number 2, at which point Jamie caught me up. Beasted it around with him for a bit - mainly in his wake - and then it all fell apart again in the last 3rd. Memorable course - and certainly tough. I was in summary "rubbish".
Running warm up/down 40:00 [3] 4.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
Lots of warming up and down over the day.
