Goc champs middle - big red barn. WRE and woc middle selection.
Had a pretty terrible race. Felt distracted on the start line. Messed up #1 - not into the scale yet. Had to relocate. 3 mins lost. I knew that there wasn't much chance I could recover from such a big mistake but I tried to keep pushing. Made a few more mistakes after that due to lack of concentration and the legs felt pretty empty the whole way round. Jess caught and passed me on the way to #2. Ended up 5th.
So not a great day. A combination of pressure, lack of time on 1:10 maps and a rather stressful week(but that's a poor excuse - I need to be able to get my head in the game regardless of what's happening around me).
