O - Training race (French 6 Days) 42:53 [5] ***** 5.4 km (7:56 / km) +145m 7:00 / km
spiked:15/20c shoes: Walsh PB Trainer 1
Final Day
Started 18 seconds down on 1st place. Caught the guy at control 4. Got away from him twice but made mistakes. Lost control of the race during the second mistake as I had no idea where he was. Caught him at the 3rd last control, didn't plan ahead enough and he beat me to the last control. Couldn't quite catch him on the run in.

spiked:18/19c shoes: Walsh PB Trainer 1
Day 5
Lost time as I missed the start kite and then got confused. Wasn't really into the smaller scale and lost time at 3. Should have been more decisive as I did know where I was. Too cautious at 7, should have followed my original plan.

Was good technically until I lost focus on the second last control. Was carrying out plans and avoiding losing time. Was happy with planning and technique. Bit slow speedwise.

Day 2
After maverick run on 1st day went out way too hard on a completely different type of area. I had learned my lesson by the 8th control but by then I was tired and had lost lots of time. Not a good race on a reasonably simple area.
