WMOC Long Qual 1. goal was to cruise around but and focus on clean navigation. failed straight up at 1 where I wobbled between the dunes and went to look at a few extra controls. pretty clueless in the circle at 2 as well (after shannon passed me). got my act together after that and just plodded along at a steady pace. my hammy/glute was pretty angry after the sprint races so just ran at a very easy pace. nav for the rest was fine. finished 3rd, 3mins behind Shannon.

Long - Qualification 1 - Women 35 Heat 1 - Splits

run to and from the model arena from the car, and 20mins around a few controls at the model. legs pretty heavy.

WMOC Spint Final. last starter after qualifying fastest yesterday. surprised at how nervous I was at the start, and legs had actually felt great warming up - but that usually means they're slow and heavy running. That was exactly what happened, and with a bunch of fast easy controls in the park I felt super slow. got going a bit once I got into the buildings, but still managed to take the wrong route choices on nearly all of the short legs - but at least I didn't hesitate, so I don't think I lost too much time. I think the key to the course was the long leg from the top of the uni campus, through the tunnel down to the spectator control, and I picked my route for this really quick and was able to run it confidently. I caught Shannon a couple of short legs later and we were together to the finish.
awesome to take the win, and very surprised to be ahead of Shannon in two sprint races (not sure that has happened before!).

Sprint Final - Women 35 Final A - Splits

WMOC Sprint Qual. goal for today was to have a steady race and not piss off my injured hammy/glute. The course was really fun - increasingly technical legs through a small but tricky uni campus. I had one missed route choice, but it turned out that others had missed by more. goal achieved (navigationally and physically), and took the win by a totally undeserved 2mins.
