right now i am in copenhagen with olly. we were suppose to be stayuing here for a few days but becasue of the stupid music festival we couldnt find accomodation so we are staying in some expensive hotel for the night and are flying to prague tonight was was also fucking expensive. soooo pretty much right now i am not having any fun and i want to go home.
can some one tell my mum we need more money... also we need to find a place to stay in prague tonight and we get there agt 8pm and argggg i hate this place.

oh and i ran ok during the relay

C • why didnt you make friends ... 13

ok positivly i navigated really well under extreame conditions. negativly i hit the wall going to number 2. the rest of the course after that was a real mission and i almost collapsed and sat down and cried on the way to number 7.... lets just say that my rest day did not help at all and i was even more tired by the end of it then i was at the beginning.
next year the long is right after the sprint so the long should be better... physcally.
soooo in the end i came 51st. not very happy because i knew i could run faster but yesterday i could barley lift my legs.

my god this was hard.
started off with the usualy pre race routine but i felt really uneasy before the start because i wasnt feeling the same as the other races during the week, i wasnt nervous enough i think. anyway i got my act togethor 10mins before the start.
the race itself was extreamly tough and i was about ready to collapse at control 5. 4 felt far to long in my head so that really put me off..
other than that i kept to my plans ok. except for the last control where i just ran in the complete wrong direction... oh well. 28th was still good.
over all (with the walking and tiredness and getting lost) i reckon i lost about 3-4mins all up... so bring on podium next year.. hahahaha one can dream.

C • Congrats!! 8

first real race out in the forest today. didnt know what to expect but i got the flow going by the 3rd control. spiked the first 4 and little hestitation on 5. 6and 7 were fine. 8 was slow as i ran to a wrong control in a similar gully. spiked 9, 10 was too low and the same with 11 where i heard my name.
was a very slow race was actaully walking up hills (cliffs) to get to the controls.
other than that iam fairly happy with it. came 9th in womens c so that means im in the A final tomorrow.
gotta focus!

C • Good run 4

jwoc model
did my own thing was good. did about 8 controls running slowly and i got lifted up a cliff by a czech boy ;)

C • Good work 2

usual warm up

jwoc sprint was good and stuff and had pretty clean as run. route choice was good too. i was in my zone today.
ended up 49th so i cracked the top 50 and im pretty happy with that considering it was the sprint, my weakest discipline.
