| Sosol in Holyrood Park. Another really tough race with long hard climbs. Bad start on Control 1 - it was difficult but didn't take enough time to work my way methodically to it. Navigation generally OK. Probably could have pushed the running a little harder although feet beginning to blister on the heels from about control 19 onwards. |

| Tried out an iTunes workout - an interval run with Serena Williams. It definitely worked and helped push the pace and effort levels along very considerably. I've never sworn at a lady so much in my life before! She just wouldn't stop pushing. |
