Was coming 11th then blew it

Ran the W21E public race at Le Revard. The terrain was similar to the relay I think- lots of varying vegetation (quite thick and slow with some felled areas and clearings in depressions) and small ups and downs. Didn't push it super hard and tried to orienteer in a normal relaxed manner- not thinking about the terrain being hard or slow or foreign- orienteering is really the same thing regardless where you are! Mostly all the controlls popped up where I expected except one really vague depression at the end. Felt I was too slow between controlls- need to pick out fast routes.
2mins behind one of the swedish sprint medalists, but I think she must have been taking it easy too because I could have been quite a bit faster.

Rest day, spectating sprints.Such exciting atmosphere, especially in Chambery for the final!

20mins easy run to the lake and 10mins back, after lovely swim. Really hot and humid, I don't normally sweat much but was dripping today!
