Run race (Hounslow SkyRun) 2:42:00 [5] 23.0 km (7:03 / km) +2021m 4:54 / km
shoes: Asics Kayano 20
Hot pace at the start. The field was jostling for position on the single track out to Pulpit Rock. I settled into about 10th place and the run back to Govett's Leap was feeling pretty comfortable, happy to sit in a train as we had to battle all the runners coming the other way.
Run out to Neate's Glen was ok, losing a couple positions including Jono who flew past me at the 12km mark. Then I was on my own through the Grand Canyon. It was hard to keep focused and try to keep pushing myself on the very technical trails. Ended up losing the track a few times losing 5 secs or so a number of times. Got passed by a couple at the end of the Grand Canyon.
I always had in the back of my mind how hard the 4km climb up Rodriguez Pass to the finish was going to be. I just aimed to keep moving but to my surprise was able to keep running pretty much the whole way. It ended up being a 40 min climb and was brutal. Passed 8 runners on the climb to finish strongly in 6th place.
