Orienteering 45:49 [3] 8.69 km (5:16 / km)
shoes: Inov8 212 (blue & orange)
UWS Penrith -Div 1 (not sure why)
Long sprint with first 5 controls in the buldings before a long leg to 6 which I, like many others, got sucked into following the obvious path which ended at an uncrossable fence. Made ther wrong choice to go south round the fence which then involved a long slope up the hill to 6 (should have gone north along the Gt Western Highway). Reasonably straight forward after this but just didn't have the legs so finished 12 mins behind Brooner.

shoes: Inov8 Race Ultra 290
Pottery Green - VM (last time as one :( )
Two words sum this up: dark & wet! Didn't start until after 6 so I knew I was going to get caught out my the dark so made sense to head into the bush first (26, 4, 8, 27, 18, 28) then 20, 10 and 29 before a long drag along the highway to 30 (misread the control description and started looking for a swing in the bottom left corner thinking I was at 7) the 23. Down through 11 and 7 and slithered down the slope to 25 followed by a waist deep wade through the creek onto the golf course. It was getting seriously dark by this stage so carefully picked my way down through 15, 24, 5, 6 and 12 to finish with over a minute to spare. Fun in a warped sense of the word.
