3rd in EM, 7 overall.
Physically and navigationally race went really well. Mind was just not in it to push hard. I think it was a combo of 3rd weekend in a row of racing, crappy cold weather after a few really nice days, no nice white woods, and one supposed to be sneaky route choice that didn’t pan out without crossing private, which left me grumpy. I think almost all the people that beat me did the N loop first, so even though it was less points in must have been faster travel with better end game.
Forgot e caps and did a poor job eating, only 3 snacks.
