Event: British Middle Championships 2013
 

Warm Up for Middle champs; stretching, WU area, strides

#1 read my Control description and realized on my map there was only 1water depression so knew where I was going but took it carefully
2# found a nice path on to it
3# compass and in
4# good attack point (fight)
5# too far right, but then found it
6# they had marked a gate which you had to cross which was fine, however I lost contact with the map and because there were so many controls it was confusing, I then saw Nathan Lawson and someone else and after flowing them for a bit I realized they were more lost then me and calmed down and got to it
7-9# flew round trying to get away from Nathan (which I managed)
then the course became like a sprint and so I pushed hard without making much of an error
I came 7th but without that one mistake on 6# could have been in with the medals. Shows how much I have improved since my 63rd place last year haha

Event: British Sprint Championships 2013
 

Day before the British middle so decided instead of doing the sprint to do a small training session at Critch chase which had similar terrain, i ran the blue course and although it was a bit seasier than expected it was still good to get my head in to it :)

Good enjoyable hash with Joss on mutters more, slow in places as the rain had washed bits away
