Narrative:
Not much to say here, as the course, and my run through it, was almost identical to Saturday. I did, officially, finish higher than on Saturday, but, had I successfully protested Saturday's result, I would have finished higher on Saturday.
Power was down about 10 watts from Saturday, as I don't have enough fitness base to recover that quickly right now. I am pleased I only lost 10 watts, and I felt I picked, and held, better lines in the Sunday race.
