Left warming up a little late maybe. Got too carried away at work sorting things out before I rushed over to SLU.
Very hot today! 27deg!
Managed to misread the PM and saw that it was full body cover...luckily I had compression socks with me and I biked in some 3/4 tights to work in the morning, so they had to do.

yep...so that was a catastrophe.
Just not mentally (and of course effecting my physical shape) there at the moment...
Started running wrong out of the start triangle...kept making mistakes the entire way! I got into a rhythm to 7 and a few after, then I just totally ran by 12 as it was impossible to even see the control under the line (hence why a few misspunched) ...realised on the way to 14, so ran back to 12 and then 13 again. By this time I was feeling angry and upset with myself, so sort of gave up in a way...
I need to start feeling more positive about things and fix up a few things in life first before racing next week otherwise it won't be so much better...
