O - Sprint Race 10:00 [5] *** 3.5 km (2:51 / km)

Sprint qualification
The usual morning story of being slightly garbage with a couple of poor decisions. Good enough legs to take me through to the final though without too much stress

22c shoes: SauFl
WOC sprint 6th
Worked out that it was a start straight into the tricky stuff at the north but still wasn't really ready for the long routechoice to 2. I picked the way that I knew (guessed) was passable and just navigated one decision point at a time. Felt odd but once the camera crew started to follow after 6 I guessed that I was going ok.
Probably pushed a bit too hard on the long straight road to 9, at some point I will try and find an actual split time for this section to see if I really did cook myself for the final section.
Got announced as leading through the arena which was pretty cool. Started to catch my 1 minute man from there as well and that combined with my oncoming tiredness possibly dropped me a few seconds in pace. I also took a series of poor choices, all probably without having got all the required map information.
My orienteering got gradually more shoddy towards the end and I took a few false steps over the last couple of controls.
What is good is that this is a very average sprint performance, I'm not great at these super wiggly route decisions, so to get up towards the top of the results is very encouraging.
