Event: British Middle Distance Championships
 

Ran off blindly and didn't relocate until over half way to number 1 (20s). Hit 2 fine but overshot 3 by a long way, looking on a western open spur, losing 1m 20s and being caught a minute. Spiked 4, losing my man again, although subsequently went almost to depression to the west of 5 (10s). Vegetation was dodgy at 6 but no time loss. Looking too early for 7 (20s). 8 and 9 ok but too far west (again!) for 10 AND 11 (10s each). Tried my best to keep up the pace through the open easy section through to 17. Significant miss at 20 (40s) being too far east for a change. Then bit of head to head until the end as I had been caught once more.
Just over 3m lost due to errors is slightly frustrating. However, pretty tough to be error free especially with 0.5m depressions and knolls. Felt I could have gone quicker had I had faster runners around as well (i.e. later start). Beautiful day, good course and enjoyed myself thoroughly.

Course 1 - Splits

Event: British Sprint Championships
 

Qualifier. Ok; thirsted for my camelbak a bit! Pretty consistent, trying not to make any big errors.

Final: Poor route on 11 lost me about 10-15s. Bit hesitant on 10 but not as bad as some... 20th in B final equating to ~ 40th overall is not bad.

Quali - Course H1C - Splits

Final - Course FB1 - Splits

Match vs Wrenthorpe B. Played with Mick.
Had played a couple of games with (destroyed) feathers on Wednesday so coped with them better than usual. We weren't particularly stretched to win all three rubbers 2-0. They are somehow 3rd in the league?!
Overall 5-4 win.

No badminton. Thought about running but that was as far as it went. Should've taken the chance to catch up on some sleep. Didn't.

Not much play.

Bit late back to get any sport in after a big hold up on the M42.
