Aux crĂȘts de Seythenex again. I guess if it takes me this long to adjust to new terrain it's good I'm starting a month ahead of time. Well I'm not quite sure what my problem was last week, but the map reminded me quite a bit of hills and dales, but with slightly more rocks, although I handled them much better this time, and USGSesque contours (probably taken straight off an IGN map). Anyway this was an easy day for me, although my stomach hurt a little. Marie Antoinette was wrong, la brioche had no positive effect on my health.

To seythenex and back. Also some sprints on the way back with dersu's course on the JWOC 09 sprint map. Well the stupid rubber cleat things are a little painful when running fast on roads, so I think I'll remove them for JWOC. They would be a good idea for a sprint that's half roads, half muddy forest.
