WOC Middle Distance Qualifer, distance is the straight line route I probably ran closer to 5k. I was really happy with my run today, I may have been moving at the pace of snail but I ran (meandered) cleanly. Usually I have at least one concentration lapse per race, so running clean was great. Considering it was my first WOC I was really happy with 23rd in my heat :) it was a great learning experience, and I will definitely be going for WOC next year!

Back out on the middle model for the final training session before tomorrow, I'm not sure if it was a slightly easier area I was in today but I was feeling much better and more confident in the terrain. 2 minor wobbles and one serious bit of hesitation but apart from that it was good. Off to help the boys choose the banquet gear this afternoon, the only criteria I've heard is cheap and luminous/bright!

Out on the middle model, one stupid mistake to the first, I was literally beside at didn't see it so faffed around trying to work out where I was, looped back only to find it 2m away from where I was standing. Was pretty happy with the rest, only had one little wobble but fixed it fairly quickly. I was happy with my compass work today and am starting to like the terrain better, it's still really hard to run through but at least the navigation is improving!
