Mixture of fast forested dunes and open dunes with grotty veg. Also some spiky low vis along the coast. Took 2 ibuprofen before running.
Better nav today with just a few small mistakes. 3rd, 2 min down on Eddie Wymer. Achilles OK for nearly an hour, but sore again at the end. Also have blisters on both heels due to the sand.
