Watching the rugby at the hostel and then in the car to the quarantine. Saw the start of the Australia come back and left the game on 22-26 to Wales with 60 minutes gone. Most nervous part of my day.

World cup sprint - 2nd. Feeling a bit heavy legged but knew everyone would. Despite this I felt like I had a decent idea of what the course layout might be and was keen to go hard and see what I could do.
Good performance - hard work to keep the speed up but was on top of the navigation. Missed a route on the long leg back to the town, thought the road was blocked and ran further around, but apart from that there were only a few hesitations. That missed route cost me the win but still happy with 2nd and just 2 seconds behind.

World cup knockout sprint qualification - 2nd behind Yannick. Ok run, a bit sloppy in the beginning and didn't feel great physically but happy enough.

World cup knockout sprint quarter final - 1st. Obvious that it was looped forking from the start and just focused on my own navigation. Not in 1st the whole way but came out of the loops with a bit of a gap.

World cup knockout sprint SF - 2nd I think I was the only one on my course choice but I came through in the lead. Had a bit of a scare because Kyburz had the same first control but then different and it confused me for a second. Let Kyburz take the lead after a few controls and then just sat in the pack with him, Ralph and Tobias. Backed myself in a sprint against Kyburz so went the same way to the last. Ralph took the better route and got the lead but I snuck ahead and got into the final.

Confused by an extra control which I misread to be the start point. At least you can't accuse me of following! Cruised around after that, unfortunately missing out on what would have been a prime view of an awesome Ralph Street kick. That boy got wheels.

Actually feeling really good today. Legs tired but this didn't feel like an effort. Yesterday was probably too much before the weekend but I think the mental benefit of running a good session, after feeling crap at the back end of last week, outweighs any tiredness I may get from it.

A bit more stretching this morning before heading out, legs feeling a bit better as a result.

Met James and Jamie for a bike path session. 3 x 8 mins (2 mins jog), 3 x 4 mins (1 min jog) Just over 3 mins/km on the 8's and just under on the 4's. Feeling good. Tipping it down but quite warm. Big help to have company - hopefully we can coordinate over the winter.
