		<description><![CDATA[I have not disappeared just very busy at work. We have been making a fantastic new performance space, appointing staff, preparing for inspection and all the usual things, plus I am coaching a cheerleading team towards the National Championships. Too little time to blog, or to do anything much outside work worth blogging about. Apart [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was frost on the car windscreen and shadowed grass this morning &#8211; the first this autumn &#8211; so it was a cold start for my first orienteering event in ages. Blacklands Farm is a camp and adventure activity site for the Girl Guides, so has large, fairly well mown grass fields, but also lots [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have a &#8220;love/hate&#8221; relationship with sprint orienteering. I stayed away from it for a long time. I am not a fast runner at the best of times, and certainly not a sprinter and I love being in forests and wild country so it seemed less attractive. As my club&#8217;s summer &#8220;park-O&#8221; events mutated into [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two courses for the price of one today (excellent value!) This was about the fourth time I have run in Hove Park. According to winsplits I had a consistent but slow run. I felt reasonably good and navigation was easy (apart from control two which saw two of us running round a little building before [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It must be summer. Southdowns Orienteers have come out of the woodlands, where the brambles and bracken are head-high at this time of year, and for the next few months we will be running around parks and adjacent terrain. In recent years the traditional &#8220;Park-Os&#8221; have developed into the Sussex sprint series &#8211; thanks mainly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It has been ages since I went orienteering (or had much of a training run) and it showed! It was a glorious morning with bright sunshine and real warmth. The first part of the course took us through open woodland carpeted with bluebells. There is nothing more wonderful in nature than a southern English bluebell [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was rain overnight and it was still raining when I set out. The temperature and wind had a real feel of autumn. Cold, wet, muddy and a physically tough forest &#8211; that&#8217;s proper orienteering! I like Sheffield Forest. It feels as if it is rarely visited, with lots of bracken and brambles in places [...]]]></description>
