Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
Early morning run to stretch my legs. Felt good and springy.
Running warm up/down 30:00 [1]
Warm up and down from Sprint qualis. Great to soak up the sea, sand and razzmatazz that races appeared to be generating.

Sprint qualification - what a great race. Tricky (ish) first control, down the slope, but got more straight forward from that point on. Managed to slip and slide on the steep bits (racing flats not footwear of choice). Ran steadily, but got a bit concerned when they announced me as finishing 3rd (actually going into the lead) going into the finish with a number of good guys behind me. Ironically, did actually fnish 3rd overall having been pipped by Squire and beaten by McCarthy.

WU/WD from finals.

Another great race - really felt like a British champs. Generally racing with good flow and speed - made 2 mistakes, both related to not spotting the control (despite being within 5 meters of the flag on both occasions). These mistakes were 10 seconds and 30 seconds. Need to work on this - could have easily got a podium finish if I had been more alert.
