Ran the Elite Women course from Friday

Training in a very steep and intricate hill village, lots of steps and tiny alleys.
Very difficult, had to come back out and relocate twice.

Based in another World Heritage site (Caserta Palace). The course consisted of a section in relatively low visibility forest, a walled section around a waterfall and parkland to finish. The first part went well and I was on course for an overall podium when I missread a description, ending up on the wrong side of a very high wall and stuck in undergrowth My technique and focus went after this and I was messy through the last bits but was surprised to find I had MP. Results show that I had 2 x MP both at controls that I had visited next to running water in the last section through the park. I was using an SI Air dibber (which is fatter than the standard ones) and had already had issues punching at controls that were wired and think that I mustn't have punched properly and because of the noise from the water just assumed that I couldn't hear the beep.
Note: Don't use SI Air dibber for non-SI Air events.

Up the tourist path to the crater and back.
Great views.
