Swiss o week day 3. Above col Du pillon again. 4.1k/lots of climb.
No 1 again stumped me- entered forest & there was an unmapped gate/track- people milling around- forest v vague. Tried to pace count & contour & started panicking as I was unable to locate anything solid. A quick banana to 2 women talking , & luckily found control . 1-2 mins could have been much longer.
Rest ok but no 4, went to hard down hill & nearly lost contact. Rescued it then committed to being careful. Some easier legs on tracks & easier open legs near end. Reckoned I would be under 43 mins but the heat & climb slowed me/everyone- 3rd, 44 secs down, same 2 guys ahead as yesterday. Another podium- won sausages. Hmm!
