WU & Scottish Sprint champs @ Uphall North. 1st W18, 4th WO. Not the best start to the course. Exit direction from C1 was poor, thought i could get past a garage so had to do a U turn back past the control. Wasnt much route choice till C8. Went through park thinking there was a gap at the edge of the fence but had to turn and use main gate, -30 seconds probably. Had to work to keep up the pace on the control picky bit as it was on a slope and legs were tiring. Planned ahead on the long leg (C15) so was fine for the last section in the intricate housing estate.

ESOC sprint 2 Uphall south and Warm down - 1st W18, 2nd WO.. Really enjoyed this course, more that Race 1. Liked that there was more variation. No mistakes, just maybe could get better at cornering. The course wasnt as tight and intricate as race 1 so could plan ahead more and really pick up pace. Took a wee breather at the timed out crossing, planned the last few controls back in the race 1 area so no problems there. Got back and realised both ankles/shins had been totally attacked by the brambles at C11, quite a lot of blood but had to take that sacrifice for the best route choice. Good fun.
