Back in G-berg

Race at Rebild bakker after the JWOC relay. Mass start groups of 5 but due to running course 2 no one same level to race against in my start block. Spur gully map with nice forest and really physical open areas covered in knee high heather. Navigation was easy so full speed most of the way but running through the heather was really draining, plus the 35 degree heat.

Middle distance course at Kollerup on the same map as the JWOC middle. Good course but struggled a bit with fine nav. Losing too much time in the circle need to work on it before uni games

Race through Aalborg city gammel torv. Awesome map, heaps of little passageways and shortcuts and really technical. Lacking a lot of speed.

Race on the JWOC Long map at Svinkløv. Feeling heaps better running today. Navigation better but still made two major errors i.e. laurina catching and passing me 3 times after starting 1min in front. Ankle has been crap since the flight over but is starting to come good running. First time 3 days straight running in the last couple of months.

Ran the JWOC sprint course. Really scrappy with navigating at speed, exited few controls wrong direction etc. Muppet error after 8, ran back to 6 due to a cross over and 6 being 9 when the map is upside down. Cruised round the rest of the course. Still not feeling snappy running
