Orienteering race 15:36 [5] 3.15 km (4:57 / km) +50m 4:35 / km
ahr:154 max:163 shoes: Saucony Kinvara 2013
JK Sprint, Swansea University and Singleton Park.
M45, tied 13th of 138.
Despite the giveaway control description, failed to identify location of #1 in the start lane and so didn't take best/simplest route. Then inexplicably tried to cut through to #2 instead of along the obvious path, ran to wrong control, 20s lost. Exit in wrong direction, another 5s lost.
Course pretty straightforward, going okay after that, then came back into the woodland in the wrong place and stupidly lost another 20s at #15.
Topped it all off by getting confused on the way to #20 and hesitating away another 10s.
So not good, 1:15 down on Martin's winning time of 14:21.
Couldn't have challenged the top 5 even with a clean run.
But on the plus side some of my splits were pretty competitive and so maybe in better shape than I had feared - a positive to take into the rest of the weekend.
