Cemetery Hill, Northampton, chasing start.
This was a whole lot of fun with route choices galore, and I got most of them right, just 14(?) where straight was better, and a wee error on 9 crossing the gully, but that was more lack of map-reading than route-choice.
Again, orienteering well but not really running at race pace, although holding off Giacomo at the end required some proper effort - another 50m and I'd have broken 200 bpm.
Thanks a mill' to Phil for a great set of races and a lot of fun orienteering, and to Giovanni and Giacomo for competition.
Oh, and this was my first time seeing the NEOC local event results set-up. Big fan!

Mt Tom renegade nighto - didn't really read the map enough to justify calling this orienteering. Pretty disgraceful showing on my part, all over the place. Oh well.
Failed the 5.6 again, although did make it past the nasty bit before dying.
Next go was a 5.5 warm-up followed by a 5.8 on the same rope, except I got stuck at the top of the 5.5 for a while and got tired, the 5.8 was slight overhang for a while so I just went halfway and bailed.
Then actually did a 5.8 and a 5.9-, the latter requiring much coaching and taking.
And failed to go for a run again today, partly because I forgot to pack running shoes...
