Middle world cup, 5.2km 20c. Felt ok on the warm up - maybe HR a bit high, but the rest rather ok. Missed 1st control by 15-20s - left path too early and checked other hill. For 3rd had a plan to go on the path on the left, but somehow ended up going rather straight, but through all the possible greenest areas. Route looks straight, but think lost at least 30s-1min for hesitation and shit route choice. On 4th found russian who started in front and got some motivation to push harder. Sadly after several rather good legs my batteries went flat and we hit hills. From there I was losing time constantly more and more. Still messed up no14 - went all the way up as the best route was to go on paths to the left. To no18 didnt find the path and attacked through he green which was rather slow. And the most stupid was to miss finish - followed opposite fence for several meters - at least that and giving up secured me the last finish split!
Technically run was rather ok - under 2min with all hesitations. Physically felt alright in the start, but after 20-25min my body refused to cooperate and that was a long and steep way to the finish..
+9.23 after Gemperle, losing like 2 positions on the finish 'route choice'.
