I loved this just felt proactive rather than reactive I was way more relaxed before it and Toni took me round the warm up map and everything on it seemed right and I flowed well. Still made an error on number two and number 12 wasn't quite with it.
My aim was to be proactive and to look at all control descriptions and I was both for 80% of my race so I'm pleased.

C • eyoc sprint 2

Jogged round the warm up map with Toni and got into it really nicely she had some really good points to make which made sense to me.
Then did high intensity drills some stretching and strides before entering start lane.
Jogged around when I finished trying to warm down.

Relay was waaaaay more pleased with this run still things I would have changed and improved but a more solid run less mistakes.
Things I would have changed would have been to stick with the pack and to push harder.

spent time jogging before relay and doing drills then in time whilst waiting for jet to come trough jogging round arena and just trying to keep nerves down.
Then warm down afterwards too.

This performance was not what I wanted however I did survive my first time in a GBR top! I will put the map up soon and the analysis. But I was soooo frustrated when I finished but after two better races I feel better about it and there are good things like I started off very well a little slow to one but up to four I was very happy, I needed better map contact in this kind of continental terrain, I have experienced first quarantine!, I didn't give up even when I ended up back at the start, I recovered from the mistake and didn't so the rest too badly, I was pleased with my route choices.

Warm up before race of jog, drills and jog round warm up map, think I should have done this before drills but never mind.

I didn't warm down but I did stretch in the evening.

Event: EYOC 2009
 

Did some sprint practice around Kapaonik just ran a few legs head to head with jet. Short but high intensity.

Walked round kapoanik with sprint map identifying bits and pieces in the model event which could be difficult and just seeing/thinking about the change from forest to urban sprint.

Another easy run up to some other woods was really hot! Did some strides in the woods again. Didn't feel amazing but not bad will stretch and hopefully will feel absolutely amazing by Friday!!!

Easy run along the canal up the hill through the woods and back down to canal and up to my house. Did some sprint/strides along canal and in woods.
