Orienteering race (Middle Earth sprint) 15:48 [4] 3.14 km (5:02 / km)
shoes: Inov8 Race Ultra 290
Rotorua CBD - course 6 (M55)
Disappointing course compared to somne of the other. First 7 legs involved very little nav and just running (not fit enough). Ran straight past 11 so a mp as I was making a conscious effort not to run through the OOB garden beds. Didn't get to run through the flooded areas along the lake shore.

Whakarewarewa - course 8 (M55)
A course of three parts; started in hilly detailed terrain before moving into more open forest (with large waterlogged areas which caused a problem at 15) then finishing in a low vis detailed area. Even managed to run staright past the last control which was on a high point next to a big track. Result nothing special.

The Rockery - course 8 (M55)
Best run of the weekend on a Lakes like open hillside but with very Lakes unlike intricate limestone detail. Felll into a muddy creek on teh way to 1 nearly losing my shoe and totally covering my map in mud, luckliy 1 was a water filled pit so could give the map a good wash. Very slippery and great fun. Muddyest ever uphill finish chute, and it stopped raining.

Rototoa - Course 8 (M55)
Absolute shocker at 1 where I pulled up short in the low viz cutty cutty grass and had to relocate off the track to the north. Even worse at 2 wheer I pulled up short again and spend 20 odd minutes wandering around even visiting 1 again! Steady after that except for 15. A long date at the office.
