Vilnius champs, middle mistance, Kazokiškės, took women elite cource. Ran almost perfect race, made only 2' worth route choice mistake to 2nd CP (should have taken the path from left, but didn't see this route during the race, also found unmarked marsh on the map and got confused by it) and two 15'' worth (each) garbage mistakes to 7th and 18th CPs. I should say it was the best race of my career, as everything was perfect: cool weather, ran faster than usually, read map during running all the time, ran to all hills, made almost no mistakes.

3 loops in VP, this time started from the corner of Geležinis Vilkas street. After first 2' felt stiches in left flank (I guess because ate too much food today - took second portion of Sushi quite late - at 16:00), suffered for some 5' and then felt better. Did 1st 5km loop with new best time - 23'49''. Second - 24'48''. Last in some 25'24''. Took water drink from car after each loop. Don't understand how will suffer warm temperatures during trainings in summer.

O-Tuesday in Aukštagiris. "Home" forest, ran perfect race, made no mistakes, ran to all hills (the last one was tough), perfect running form (was flying downhills). No HR values as once again forgot HR belt at home (guess that avg some 175, max 190), need to be more accurate. Happy that my VJ Twister shoes fit for my feet this season easily.

First win of the season in O-Tuesday's (thanks to vosvos who skipped this race). Nice, very nice.
