Cycling out to Heriot Watt for the Scottish Sprints and then back again afterwards. Rather tired on the way back!

First round of the Scottish Sprints. Not thinking in sprint mode too much, too relaxed then rushing and not thinking about smooth lines, route choice etc. A couple of really badly planned legs led to dog legs around uncrossable hedges. Scrappy, didn't feel like a good sprint race at all.

Much better this time. Running more strongly, stoomach not an issue, planning ahead much better, relaxed and focussed after an initial brain muddle at number 1 with the hedges. Terrible route choice and not really thinking between 7 & 8 but otherwise much better, smoother lines, better panning, more in touch. Amazing fun. Heart rate hasn't been that high for a very very long time though, a bit scary!
