spiked:19/23c shoes: Asics Patriot 3

JWOC Sprint at Lebork. Was pretty excited for this but wasn't really expecting much, sprint isn't really my thing.
1 and 2 were grand.
3- route choice error here cost me about 20s
4- Seeen the other option started going that way then started to doubt myself and turned, lost another 20s. Running up the steps and decided to go left around the uncrossable fence, think right might have been better. Good path and didn't have to think.
5- Bit further to the left than i thought I would be.
6- Running down the hill and went past my path thinking that it was further down caught on pretty quick at the sight of the playground. Lost another 30s.
7- On the way there looked over my shoulder only to see my Thor my 2min man already so pciked up a bit more speed.
8 and 9- spiked.
10- Hesitated slightly at the possibility of olive green punched just ahead of Thor.
11- Went to go down an alley with an uncrossable fence stopped pretty quick but Thor was away.
13- Running past all the spectators, lot more than I thought there would be. Scary
14- Tiring now and Thor was now gone.
17- Longer leg that let me pick the pace up a bit.
18- Spike but hesitant about the gap in the hedge and the marshall standing beside it. Went through it on way to 19.
20-23- Hit these all well but my control flow sucked and my speed sucked.

Overall I thik more training on sprint maps is needed for me, neeed to be more decisive about route choices and I need to speed up.

Lucas Basset did it in 15:07. Thor in 15:59 finishing 12th.
