Hong Kong Open Sprint League, M35. Finished second.
It was so hot. 35 degrees and high humidity. I drank about a gallon when I got done. Urban sprint through a park and residential areas of Hong Kong with lots of different levels and staircases. I had a lot of trouble on one control until I realized that the control was on the fifth floor next to the tennis court, and not the ground floor next to the badminton court. The hardest part really was trying to figure out what level I needed to be on to get around - there were footbridges across roads, staircases, stone walls, and very very dense features. But I'm taking home some hardware.
We had Typhoon Nida go directly over us this morning, so the factory was closed - I went down to the gym in the hotel for a while and worked out. Lots of hard intervals, some bike, some weights, some running.
