Final B1
Loved the race and felt quick. Still didn't place as high as I would have liked but it was better overall than the first race. Scrappy towards the end: ran past control 14, 90degree error to 17 and overshot 20.
Sprint is still my favourite event but I need more pace!

Heat 1A
Loved the race! Great start with some good route choices. Sprintervals has been really good practice. Overshot 15 which saw me visiting 16 first and then went the wrong way round the wall to get to 17 before doubling back. Then found out that I could have punched 17 from that side through a whole in the wall without losing time on 18. 2 minutes I lost would have gained me almost 20 places but would still have left me 3.5 minutes off the pace.
As much as I enjoyed it I realised I needed to pick up my pace in the final.
