Running 15:00 [1]
Easy morning run - saying hello to the cows!
Orienteering race 40:00 [5]
Middle champs - CLOK tried really hard with the race which I appreciated, but don't think the area was quite up to the challenge. Really enjoyed race, but was simply not orienteering fast enough. Could easily have found the minute and change I needed for a top 3 finish, but all of the guys ahead of me made mistakes as well. Class results from OJ (again!) and NN (about time!).
Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]

Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
Early morning run to stretch my legs. Felt good and springy.
Running warm up/down 30:00 [1]
Warm up and down from Sprint qualis. Great to soak up the sea, sand and razzmatazz that races appeared to be generating.
Orienteering race 15:00 [5]
Sprint qualification - what a great race. Tricky (ish) first control, down the slope, but got more straight forward from that point on. Managed to slip and slide on the steep bits (racing flats not footwear of choice). Ran steadily, but got a bit concerned when they announced me as finishing 3rd (actually going into the lead) going into the finish with a number of good guys behind me. Ironically, did actually fnish 3rd overall having been pipped by Squire and beaten by McCarthy.
Running warm up/down 30:00 [3]
WU/WD from finals.
Orienteering race 15:00 [5]
Another great race - really felt like a British champs. Generally racing with good flow and speed - made 2 mistakes, both related to not spotting the control (despite being within 5 meters of the flag on both occasions). These mistakes were 10 seconds and 30 seconds. Need to work on this - could have easily got a podium finish if I had been more alert.

Orienteering 15:00 [4]
Sprint training around a couple of courses Oli had planned around Walkley. Amazing that there are still places on the map that I had not been to! Felt sharp.

Running 15:00 [1]
Early morning run - back, legs and bum sore.
Running warm up/down 30:00 [1]
Orienteering race 37:00 [5]
Relay - really good to be in a team with Mike, Neil and Nick.We didn't run to our full potential, but watch out for us at the British.
Mistake of the day: I mispunched (fair cop - I f*cked up). Rest of team really nice about it (well at least to my face!), but I really have no excuse....pretty disappointed.
