The judge was Elpida Ismael from Greece.

There were a lot of misunderstandings on this course, but she performed the weave poles amazingly well.

I was pretty happy with the start up until the long jump. I didn’t handle that section correctly. Looking back, it was a poor choice, and I should have been to the left of the long jump.

The judge was Zzusa Veres from Portugal.

My overconfidence cost us the double tunnel. It was simply too far and slightly in the dark. I knew it was a long shot, but I gave it a try.

A small handling mistake at a jump, and she took the obvious obstacle. The finish could have been cleaner. I don’t think I made the best choice there.
