Day 6 Urban race in Aberystwyth. Started badly again. The first section was in the forest and that's where I lost all my time. Tried to go too fast and lost 30 secs on no.1 then overran no.3 and lost over a minute there. Then lost another minute on no.5 pulling up too short. The rest of the course went pretty well. Finished 11th of 35.

Day 5 on Llynnoedd Teifi near Abersytwyth on the coast of west Wales. Course was on boggy marshes in the mountains similar to the maps I ran on for the Irish Champs in 2009. I ended up being 15 minutes late for the start but luckily it was a punch start so no time lost. Unfortunately, I didn't settle down and most of my time on no.1 and 2. I was slow getting into the map but the second half was much better - faster and no errors. I rolled my ankle at the 3rd last and hobbled back into the finish losing a couple minutes there too. That's now 3 times in the last week. Twice my ankle was taped.
