10min w/u, then 20min w/d collecting controls

QLD long champs at Hidden Glen. Started 1.15hr after everyone today due to helping on start again. Had ~1.30min to catch on Lorenzo to get the overall win. Was feeling crap before the start again so took a gel which helped heaps. Run was pretty good, hit everything reasonably cleanly, just a few wobbles. Had a gel with about 30mins left, then managed to get a minute back on Lorenzo on 16 plus the extra 30secs on 15, and 17. Got through the last 2km alright but left hammie was cramping by then and mind was starting to wander. Pretty happy/lucky to get the overall win by 19secs considering how well Lorenzo is running at the moment.

QLD Middle Champs at Aramara. Started 30mins after everyone else due to helping on starts. Was feeling flat during the entire race, but nailed all controls except for a parallel error on 5 (Lorenzo made same mistake), and the last one. Looking at splits Lorenzo went out a lot harder at the start, but i was keeping pace mostly through the last section. Not too happy being so far behind but dont think i could have won today even with a clean run.

Half riverloop, was feeling bit rough so cut it short. Ankle was playing up a bit, going to see the witch doctor in an hour.

Terrain run with the lads at Toohey forest. About 35mins in the terrain till it got dark then last section on some rough trails.
