shoes: RocLite 243 #3
ONs cross country, 3rd,
9 seconds slower than 2014 when I thought I was much fitter. very pleased with this.
start was ridiculously fast as per the usual so quite a bit of overtaking in first km or 2 as I wanted to pace it more evenly. Settled in with an ON called Andreas (who I just beat 2 years ago). 1st a way off, seemed a gap behind. Lactating in the arms. Started to feel it round the lake and then I was slightly gapped going back up the hill to the hall. gap stayed pretty much the same to the finish.
shin a bit sore on warm up.
always enjoy this and this year was no exception.
