Long distance at Falnash. Fairly happy with today, a bit wayward at times but managed to save myself. Annoyed to be getting very tired towards end. Hip not so bad today but not great.

Control collecting at southern end of map. Hard coming back with sun setting in my eyes. Managed a bad ankle sprain - first since not wearing braces. Nice to be out in the forest though - it was a stunning day!

Hard 3 - Splits

Event: NSW State League 7/8/9 - QB3
 

Bush sprint at Ben Bullen. Should have done better- time lost on 4 (poor exit from 3), 5 (trouble reading contours), 9 (shocking direction leaving 8) and 10 (lost my nerve). Could have done a lot better without all that! Hip annoying in the bush which is just annoying.

Ve with Aoife, the long walk to the start sapped the little enthusiasm Aoife had. It was more of a stroll than a race and she was not inspired today. Course quite straightforward so I only needed to say something when she got distracted by another (quite visible) control. A lot of discussion about how she could not run as she was sad, or happy. She can only run when she is mad. Not sad-mad just mad-mad, sometimes happy-mad but not happy-happy-mad. I have a lot to learn.

Day 1 - Hard2 - Splits

Pretty awful despite the new shoes.
