JK long.
Legs are even better than the first two days!
So i did alright today. Four minutes behind Nick without a single day of endurance base running! I had 9 weeks off during that period where i cycled to and from work. So yes i'm happy things aren't so sucky in the long distance department. But yes of course i was 11 and a half mins down on Hector Hains so there is more work to do. But that's for next winter. Today i didn't care about the WOC spot for long. I wanted to race good in the unofficial IOC long race. I beat Magic by four seconds today. And Nick beat me overall with day 2 and day 3 combined by one second. I didn't have any goal for the overall, i had a goal just for each individual race. And i'm mostly happy except for a shit sprint result. I can accept my mistakes, that's the sport, but i just hate how my damn ear plugs didn't do their job.
Alot of controls in the beginning of the course were dead easy, a disgrace at best. Irish planners. It's a controllers job to help the planner not do these kind of shit things, in case any twat is wondering.
