Relay, leg 2 - was so happy with my run, felt like I ran well and was much more confident about reading the map. Few minor errors, veering off course on no7, probs costing me 3-4min, as well as a number of running a bit too far to one side of controls. Overall, had a heap of fun and loved the vibe of the carnival

Pitiful amount of time, but intermittent rain discouraged any proper warm up/down

Didn't really get much of a warm up coz of the cramped start

This was an interesting one. Came back feeling like I had run a right shocker but was pleasantly surprised by my rank.

Looking at Winsplits, the original savage, i held 2nd from no4 until a mess up at no10 due to hesitancy with scale, knocking me back 10min. From no10-15, surprisingly held 3rd until a silly choice to go straight as opposed to track, costing me about 2-3min.

Felt physically strong and springy up the sandy dunes at the end which was a surprise so I'm pleased about that progress. However, I was nervous about the terrain heading in, which meant I opted for wider, safer options and repeatedly double-guessed myself - definitely feel like that behaviour held me back.

Lots to look at here in terms of what to work on but I really enjoyed myself - beaut terrain once ur out of the cutty grass

Felt pretty springy and fresh

Felt fresh n raring to go, which shows through on the first few controls on Winsplits. thx to the sample map, was enthusiastic bout the complex bit at the end, which i feel made it cleaner and quicker. Lost 30sec at no13 n took a poor routechoice to no10 which cost me a place or two according to Winsplits but can't be unhappy with that run, super enjoyable and super fast

Run around the block to keep the legs ticking over

30min w/ 5x100m bursts
