Definitely not my strongest race. I was mentally tired and kept making mistakes throughout the race. I struggled to push physically as well. Training for next year will definitely involve sustained mental and physical effort.

Middle B final, 25th place. Again, I was focusing on navigation which took away from my speed. I felt pretty good up until 7-8--I went through the white hill north of the line and it was 1) not white and 2) very vauge. Looking at gps results all 4 routes seemed about even, so I guess I should have just set my compass and gone for it and trusted the road to catch me (which I didn't even consider until I hit it.) 9-10 was also iffy; I hit the boulder but after that visibility wasn't great and I ended up approaching the control from too far south. Other than that a pretty clean race. I wish I had done more terrain running throughout the year; will definitely make an effort for them next year. If I can find good places to do terrain runs. (Any ideas, Cascaders?)

Okay so first JWOC race is in the bag. I had a solid 30th finish for my heat and a relatively clean race, with some hesitation and bobbles, but no big mistakes and navigationally sound. Focusing on perfect navigation definitely made it slower, though, because I feel like I could've ran considerably faster. I'm gonna adjust my goal for the rest of this week to include pushing hard when I can (and also reading ahead, which I didn't do today). Overall, not a very technical race. I think now that I've experienced one race and the whole start procedure I'll be better prepared for the others.
