WOC Long - Glen Affric
Messed up the first control, forgetting about the change in scale and stopping far too early. Then caught up to the Ukranian who started before me and a Chinese girl at 2. Ended up being stuck with them for the rest of the course. I was doing a lot of the navigating, but just couldn't run away from them cos the terrain was so slow and rough. Such amazing views on the long leg across the open. An austrian girl caught us on the way to 12, and all of a sudden we could suddenly run faster. Sort of shocked us out of the automatic plod we'd gotten into. Finished in 42nd place, to almost keep my placings consistent!

WOC Relay - Darnaway West
3rd leg with Lizzie first leg and Renee second.
Absolutely loved this map. Just running along grinning the whole way. Pulled us up from 19th to 14th, and nearly outsprinted the Spanish girl. But the NZ supporters ruined my stealth approach ;)

WOC Middle - Darnaway East 40th
Pretty happy with my first WOC forest race. Navigation was good, just didn't have anything left in my legs to run fast through the rough terrain after all the sprints. Felt like I was orienteering in slow motion most of the way. Out-sprinted the Italian girl again (from a few controls out this time), for the 2nd time this week. ;) Could feel my side beginning to cramp up again on the last couple of controls, but managed to hold it off.
A much happier 40th place than the sprint final.
