Warming up towards the start with Joost and Thomas.

Orienteering race 30:12 [5] **** 4.3 km (7:01 / km) +100m 6:17 / km
spiked:7/13c (injured) shoes: VJ Supra spike

3 days of France - Day 2 - WRE
Class: H21E
Result: DNF

At the 13th control i twisted my left ankle seriously and it was impossible to complete the race.
It was a pitty because i felt physically very strong today (maybe my best day so far). Technically i already made some mistakes. When i gave up, i was running in a group with Yoann Garde, Joost Talloen and some other runners (who started before me). If i would have finished in the same group, i would have been 10th today (41').

+ 20' walking to the finish area.

Running 52:15 [3] 10.0 km (5:14 / km)
slept:8.0 shoes: Mizuno Wave Precision 8

Actually i planned to rest today, but some orienteeringfriends came to Leuven so i joined them on training (and a drink afterwards).

At the beginning of the training the speed was too high for a recuperation run (4'30min/km). After 20 minutes we did split up. Thomas van der Kleij and Jef Boeckx ran the long training. Todd Oates, Jeroen van der Kleij (they both ran the 10km Tessenderlo Classic yesterday), Sofie Herremans (on bike) and me continued a shorter run at easy speed.
