Warm up for the Sprint WOC selection. Jog on the model map, plenty of strides, stomach actually feeling pretty good and legs etc everything fresh.

Grrr. WOC Sprint Selection. Results wise a total catastrophe, though spike rate wise not too bad. Was planning ahead well, taking the smooth lines, maybe a little cautious at the start but generally really good until number 10, wher eI had a momentary lapse of concentration. Registered seeing the Hensmans, not the fact they were sat on a BENCH, and hence ran to the next bench and attacked from there. Hit number 11 without realising, panicked, and faffed about until finally I saw the sculpture, realised I should be directly below it, and dropped into the control having wasted up to 1.17. Obviously a monumental error for a sprint race and really disappointing. After that were a couple of perhaps slightly sub optimal results, but that leg was where I lost the top five I was aiming for. Really annoyed with myself and struggling to find the motivation to drive north for the rest of the weekend. Luckily Jane is a legend, as is my mum, and felt a bit better after an hour or so.

Running 17:00 [2]

Warm down with Jane.
