British Sprints
Chorley
Qualifier 2.8km 30m

Not a great run but good enough to get me into the final in 4th place on heat 4. Lost about 1min with the biggest mistake on no.3 when I was standing right by the control but didn't see it and ran off only to return 25s later and find it.

Lost some time on 3-4 controls but taking ecard out too quickly so a couple of seconds and hastle repunching to make sure.

British Sprint
Final 2.9km 70m
8th

Lost about 25s so better than first race but was a lot easier. Biggest mistake was 10s when i hesitated on 13. Probs didn't run hard enough in the early part of the race as it was technically very easy. Didn't run up the slopes in the wood too hard as thought I would suffer once i got back onto the flat, hard to say if that would have been the case or not.

Reasonably happy with the result.

British Middle Champs

Didn't think my middle races could get any worse. But this proved they could. Was ok on the first 3, lost about 10s at 2. Then made mistakes on 4,5,6... Couldn't even work out what was going on on 15 just seemed to hit a load of crags that weren't on the map to the west of the control. Jarred ankle on 18 which is the first time in the selection races its happened. Just after the road crossing decided I might as well tried to speed up and use it as practice but smashed my toe on a rock so decided it just wasn't my day.

Think I'll try and get back there over the summer to see if I can make any more sense of it second time round.

Eden Project Race
Oak 3.6km 190m

Good fun, lost a bit overshooting 12 and punching 17 as controls circle were close together and numbers not 100% clear but realised and went back. Overshot 13 due to ther being no flag and not seeing it. Not the quickest route to 14 either. Didn;t rest much at 18 so was feeling dead on the hill.

Ok race a part from starting to run round the specator - finish loop in wrong direction. Lost just under 8mins doing that plus 1.30 on the next leg due to being so annoyed with myself.

Just struggling to read inside the circle on most of the course and lost about 10mins in little mistakes on most controls. Felt like I was running well otherwise.

JK Middle
Cooksworthy
5.5 125m

Got stuck in mud on way to no.2 so lost a bit of time trying to get out. Hesitant into 6 as my map was covered in mud and i had nowhere clean on my clothes to wipe it off.

Lost over a minute on 8, was heading straight for it then the windblown mapped as green threw me and I went back where i had come only to realise I was in the right place. Lost a bit of time on 9 and 10.

Less said about 22 the better. Still never felt like i was running quite quick enough for a middle.

JK Sprint
Bicton College
3.2km 40m

Did a fair amount of preparation for this and probably paid off, best result of weekend - 12th, 11th on 21E.

Felt like I could run properly today as well which helped. Lost 45 secs in total. Not reading ahead, looking too far ahead and 15 of the secs on an overshoot at 13. Lost about another 15 on 2 controls not reading the code before i got to them then checking only as I was beginning to run away.
