Running warm up/down 26:09 [3] 3.64 km (7:11 / km)
shoes: Asics GT-1000 2
Orienteering race 1:39:11 [5] 14.16 km (7:00 / km)
shoes: Icebugs Spirit OLX 2
SHI Individual Newbourough (10.5km).
Started of well even though thought I was going slow but then was distracted as caught 3min girl and missed 3. Then kept trying to recatch which was stupid instead of sticking to own plan. Was standing right beside 6 but didn't see it so lost more time. Tessa caught me and we were together for a few controls but it quickly became clear to me it wasn't my day physically as I felt absolutely horrendous and my breathing completely went. I then felt really down as I already felt worse than Euromeeting and just need b12 injection. I was pretty bad through next few as I was running for Scotland and felt like I was letting everyone down by being rubbish again. Then I pulled myself together and told myself I could only do what I could do and if that meant going slow with no mistakes then that was what I would do but I went on make more mistakes due to not having a proper plan on 13, 14 and 18. I took a real path route to 19 as I felt more positive running rather than struggling and didn't need to navitgate much. Ok through last section and gave me confidence to catch more people but didn't get distracted this time.
Everyone made mistakes and glad I pulled myself together as the all the other Scottish W21s had a worse time out there. Ended up 6th which was higher than expected but lots to improve on but a huge improvement on this time last year. On reflection I might have enjoyed it.
