34th place, disappointed and a bit angry at the finish. It started ok and was in about 15th at the spectator. Not that I knew it - I'd been forced so wide on routes to #3 and #4 I thought I must've missed a trick and I'd be way down already. Then #7 came and I hadn't done enough planning ahead. I got some of the way only to realise my planned route was blocked by a high fence. The only crossing I could spot was back past #6 and up a massive hill. So I did that. In hindsight I should've carried on further round the way I was going. Out of it after that and no longer on top of stuff. Most of it was a great tricky sprint, but I was not a fan of the legs 2-3, 3-4 and 6-7: when the only options are so wide, drastic and different to each other I don't know how you are meant to spot more than one viable route choice, let alone compare and decide which is best.

Not much warm-down due to being in a boo.
