19 September 2007
It was qualifications for the C1Men and K1Men today. In the K1s Mike had a solid start and super fast second run finishing in 16th place and Aaron did a minter 1st run putting him in 10th but touches in the 2nd put him into 27th overall.
I ended up in 53rd, not even close to my last years 30th. James had a better day finishing 2 places from semis in 42nd. I really felt mentally prepared and felt great, but physically I was not. I lost my edges and had a roll at the gateline of 13 incurring a 50 in the 1st. My second run saw a huge improvement with a time 67 seconds faster WOW!!
Putting things into perspective I didn’t get much of a chance at a build up to this race, and although I believed I could do it, that wasn’t enough. It has been a bit of a shitty season really with annoying injuries but I guess that’s motivation to make sure I recover now and make up for it in my build up to the second Olympic qualifications chance at Oceania’s in March next year.
K1Woman and C2 are tomorrow, then teams Friday.
