Up

Definitely tired from yesterday, but the woods were even faster today so it balanced out a bit. I was able to keep a clear head through virtually the entire course with only a few hesitations, one small mistake on 10, and relocating after crossing all the stone walls to 11. Other than that it was very clean, and I really enjoyed the terrain. It was simple and open, so it would be hard not to.

Blue Day 2 - Splits

Up. Ran on the warm-up map a little.

The first control was almost in the opposite direction that we started, but that didn't cause me any trouble. I started off easy, as usual, to get a feel for the course, and I got faster as the race went on. The woods were extremely open and fast, so there was a lot of compass at work, but also large features to guide into controls. After control 15 or 16 I noticed I was getting tired and not thinking as efficiently as before, but I was able to focus enough to finish my race with no significant mistakes. I lost a bit of time on the course, but not much. A couple small things that the Attackpoint splits didn't pick up on. When I finished I was thoroughly tired, so I knew I had at least done well for myself.

Down

Blue Day 1 - Splits

A bit chilly, popped a blood vessel, but still a fun practice.
