EOC Sprint Qual - Bellinzona
16th=

Job done...just. Very stressful few minutes at the end waiting to see if I'd made it.

Thought I'd had an okay run so was a bit surprised to be so close to missing out. But looking at the map again, I definitely lost out on some of the route choice.

EOC Sprint Final - Mendrisio
42nd

29 degrees, long and hilly sprint is definitely not ideal. Absolutely roasting before I started and the water I'd poured over my head had dried in the 2mins it took to reach the prestart.
I think the heat flustered me a bit as I was quite scrappy through the first few controls and wasn't completely focused. Took the time to plan the long leg and even stopped at the control. As a result, it was actually one of my best splits which doesn't usually happen on such a long leg.
Scrappy through 6 and 7, then leaving 7 I couldn't find the alleyway I'd literally just run through and tried to go in an olive green bit. Absolutely hit the wall climbing the stairs to 14 and was just stumbling around the last loop which was such an unnecessary loop anyway.

Event: European Orienteering Championships 2018 & World Cup Round 1

Note

Very stressful day as we had issues using Tim's credit card to hire the car. 3 hours later we finally left Milan airport with a car from a different company.
Brief stop at the accommodation before getting accredited, team meeting, model event, dinner, sleep. Absolutely exhausted...not the ideal preparation!

6 PM

Orienteering 19:49 [2] 3.72 km (5:20 / km) +77m 4:50 / km
shoes: Mizuno Enigma 3

Jogged around the model map with a few faster legs and some strides at the end. Felt absolutely rubbish. Took the first 10mins to relax from the stressful day before finally doing some decent navigating.
