SO Local Event: Park-O Sprint: Horsham Park
Perfect September weather today, with gentle sun and warmth, rather than heat, plus a breeze. This classic park was full of colourful footballers in new kit and children were playing everywhere. It felt like a blast of late summer.
Sadly, I was particularly hopeless at the orienteering. I had my mind fixed on running fast and I took a full eight minutes off last week’s time, but missed one control completely and mispunched another in my hurry. I never felt in contact with the map and was bound to go wrong.
They say that a bad dress rehearsal is good for the main performance – I hope so with the new season about to begin.
