running warm up/down 20:00 [3]
Kosice,
warming up (mostly) and down for the sprint race.
Felt like crap. Spent most of the morning on the toilet pouring out any sugary water I drank. Got empty before starting the jog and three paces in was sweating buckets.
Did a warm-up 7 control sprint course, some slow, a little fast.
drank a little more sugary water.

The occasion and the stomach problems added some interest to an otherwise uninspiring course.
Couldn't run fast enough - on all bar three controls i was almost exactly 11-12 seconds down per minute on the fastest.
I don't know whether I would have been much if any faster had I not been sick.
Afterwards I no longer had the scuts, but was seriously dehydrated and had to wait until evening before I managed to sweat again, despite overheating and having temperature swings. Felt crap.
Ended up lying in the next morning and missing the relays. Needed it to recover... Only started feeling close to better when I woke again around lunchtime.
