Note
(injured) (rest day)

Ranking dropping quicker than shared on Black Wednesday (or whichever day of the week that crash was)... a combo of injury and lack of any decent training. Will have to be realistic and do whatever I can during the summer until 24 June and then resume fuller cross training and see what levels of fitness I can reach on a combo of cycling, gym, swim and the occasional O event at the weekend.

spiked:25/27c (injured) shoes: Inov-8 Mudclaw 265 Blue

EA Champs at Writtle Forest - started well enough but made a real hash of 4. I was confused by what look like some unmapped pits and must have gone past the actual control quite closely. Faffed around and got it eventually but lost at least 4 mins on this one leg. Another couple of misses (30 secs or so?), but mostly had to run conservatively due to hammy. Still it was lovely to be out around this forest which is perfect this time of year.
