Running (Warm Up) 10:00 [2] 2.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Enigma
Orienteering race 35:19 [4] 8.0 km (4:25 / km)
(sick) shoes: Mizuno Enigma
1st, 43secs in front of Anna
First 8 controls were in the streets and all fairly straight-foward. Started far too fast and had already established a 1min lead by control 8 over Anna and Miek. Then crossed over to the tricky multi-level area by the castle. Went through quite a bad patch here, stopping at every control for a rest and to plan the next leg. Was equal to a very fast Belgian runner called Kim at 13, but she then lost over 2mins in the multi-level area. Final loop back in the streets was a struggle, but kept pushing hard with the thought of all the prize money up for grabs :) Annoyingly took a bad route round the cathedral near the end and lost 15secs but luckily had built up enough of a lead that it didn't matter.

2nd +5sec to Anna Serrallonga
Quite tricky in the beginning with some underpasses being open and some having closed gates. Then lots of fast running through streets and parkland. Lost quite a bit of time by running the first route that I found, rather than looking at other better options - especially on 1 and 6. Then got caught out around 8-10 by the passable fence that was definitely not very passable. As well as not realising the hedges were passable.
Apart from that just feeling rubbish physically from being ill but happy to still be close to Anna and Miek.

Orienteering race 16:50 [4] 4.0 km (4:13 / km)
(sick) shoes: Mizuno Enigma
1st, 28secs ahead of Anna
A lot more fast park running in this one. Had established that the first control was common as it was the green jersey leg, so sprinted off after Tristan. But then decided he must be going somewhere else so cut up and over the stopbank which was very slow, whilst he ran through the tunnel and got there much before me. That made me stop being so silly and slow down a bit and make sure I knew where I was going for each leg, so the rest of the course went quite well. Tiring a lot towards the end, but luckily it was a bit trickier with some buildings/walls to negotiate. But in general felt a lot more in control than the first race.
Overall leader going into tomorrows city race by 23secs over Anna, 49secs over Miek...so all very close!

Feeling rubbish so this was very slow. Skipped the standard strides too. Garmin was having an absolute fit and wouldn't find satellites.
