Still and took a while to get moving, but heart recovering a bit better than yesterday after efforts. Glorious blue sky day.

O Cerdanya Day 2, M 21, 5.4km, 240m, 18 controls.
Felt a world better running today, not exactly fast but ran the hills and didn't get dizzy. Quite a fun course with lots of down, but again the contours felt they were from an '80s map. This caused a problem with #3 and I ended up to low. In my confusion I never saw #4 and went straight to #5... Still, happy to be able to run, not happy that I was still 10 minutes down.

Feeling much better after O today so took a detour up to a lake on the way home. Much bigger hill than I was expecting, but very nice up at the lake - despite the hoards who had taken the bus up. Stopped at the river on the way down and found the SYO/FVO crowd having a dip. Got lost in Font Romeu on the way back and ended up walking along a mountain bike track with my road bike.

Nobody in the campsite when I got back, so after eating, washing and having a sleep I decided to go for a walk. Only one option avoiding roads but that meant over a hour steeply uphill in hot sun. Lovely church on top. Out nearly 2 hours.
