Event: AOC2018
 

Australian Middle Champs at Renmark. Started slowly, but didin't do me much good as I botched the first, finding it hard to tell the difference between white and yellow (I wasn't the only one). Steady thereafter but speeding up a bit from 8-12 where I passed two sandgropers, but then a spasm came and I stuffed up 13, not really able to think while I was trying to get some air. Lost about 3 mins before I was able to breathe again, then another 2 relocating and climbing up to the control. Ran slowly over the last section knowing I was going to be a bit down the field.

Turns out I was 2nd at 12, had no chance of catching my kiwi mate - he was over a minute ahead, but could have got a place but for the spasm.
