Training Log Archive: Scotty

Got dropped by Dad half way out to Havelock and ran down St Georges to Crosses and over to Havelock High as a warm up (about 19mins and 4km) then a quick jog to clear the legs slightly afterwards once i'd gotten home.

Still felt pretty tired from the last week so this was hardly a race, treated it more as a tempo style run and tried to focus on good control flow and planning ahead. It all went pretty well really. I had a few hesitations and moments of unease in the valley but not much time lost. Through the high school was clean as a whistle and really smooth except for a wrong route choice on a short leg due to incorrect mapping. Had the intermediate loop last and lost a bit of focus half way through and wasn't planning ahead so one or two sloppy controls but still not bad. Ended up second 1.5mins behind Rassmus who set the course with Kate so not a bad result. Satisfied with the knowledge that I could've gone much faster
