Glasgow Parks Championships

This is one of my favourite orienteering events although I always seem to manage to mess up with some horrendous errors even on the easiest of courses. The plan was therefore to make sure I orienteered accurately and didn't make any big mistakes.

Race 1 was Linn Park which was a new one for me. Huge blunder on Control 1 when I headed very deliberately for Control 2 rather than Control 1 losing around 90 seconds. One understandable mistake later on at 8 that many struggled with.

Race 2 was at Queens Park which I've raced at before. Went well with no material mistakes.

Race 3 at Pollok Country Park went very badly. Felt like Bingo controls to me although others seemed to cope fine with it.

A bit disappointing to perform so badly.
