15min warm up and 1min warm down

JWOC relay...1st leg

Good start...good through spectator, then the long leg after the spec was so bad...stopped too early along with some other girls and mucked around for a few minutes...grr...the rest was good...just so wish i didnt do that :/

Jaime, ang and i ended up in 9th which was good...best ever nz place for women :D so easily could have been on that podium though as we all made mistakes :(

Middle Final-A final
was a steady start...quite slow i guess but good...then running to the spec, ran to the gate u wernt allowed to run in as the map was not clear at all...lost so much running back around...gr...then i guess i was stressed, so the rest of the race was just totally messy :(

ended up 49th

15 WU
15Wd

15 wu
20 wd as i was angry and wanted to feel good for 2mw...

Middle QUal
was in heat C...started early so was so nervous waiting around as I stuffed up #1 by nearly 2min...so i was pretty angry :S

qualified in 16th

easy easy jog with the crew

15 WU and 15WD...so tired after

JWOC long
started in the last block, so it was real shit waiting around in the quarantine that long...
was a good race apart from route choice and maybe 2min lost at no. 11...was just s incredibly tired and couldnt run or push...walked so much :(

35th place....was ok, but less than 4min from top 10

15 WU
10 WD...was prretty upset, so wasnt warming down that well :(

JWOC SPrint
Kill me now!!!!!!!!!!! :'(
Worst sprint race ever!!!
Had a really good start...got fastest split to 1 and 2, and was still leading at 3...then to number 4, i had a really good route choice and spiked it really good, but because i was confident in what i was doing, i was reading to 5...then i ended up checking #5 description instead of 4...so i doubted myself and kept running around the hill as i thought i hadnt gone far enough :( so ended u losing soooo much time!!!
anyway, to no. 5, i got fastest split as i was so angry!!
the rest of the course was good apart from one near the end which i totally stuffed the route choice and got confused and lost a lot of time...my mind was in a very bad space :(
anyway... guess what was done was done..but i jst know i could have done really good!! looking at my splits i could have...if u take away #4 mistake and the one near the end, I would have been 5th!!!! FML :( this is one i knew i could have done really well in :(

jogging around the sprint model map...did 5 strides too...felt awesome!!!!!!
