Australian Relays at Mundoolun, running 3rd leg for the dream team.
Really good run, just having a great time out there on a really nice day.
In the mass start for remaining runners. A bit wide on #1, #3 and #4 trying foolishly to avoid climb but was fine relocating again on each. I took #5 cautiously as I knew I wasn't reading into the detail enough. #6 was possibly a little wide as well but as I had complete contact the entire time, I would've been running faster anyway. Going to #7 I was unsure as to whether or not i was allowed to run through the church but luckily went through anyway as it was a lot quicker I think. I drifted a little but it worked out well because I ended up just above the junction and then knew which way to go from there. A bit hesitant and cautious of #8 and a bit more drifting on #9 but the large rock caught me perfectly. Lost time on #10 checking a control in the creek for the fun of it
Fastest time and second place wooo!!
