9 AM
MTBO Race race (3rd Hunter valley champs ) 1:36:00 [4] 18.3 km (11.4 kph) +223m
shoes: Cannondale SI 2
MTBO BOSS 5 - 3RD https://www.strava.com/activities/6817621330 Well, I always said that the decisions you make in the last 15 minutes of the race are the most critical. I had really good navigation today and felt good most of the race. However, with 4 min to go at #192, I decided to skip 304 and 216 which would have bought me another 5 minutes/points or 52 instead of 47 (before reduction), I ended up not taking them. Then, adding insult to injury, I went back to the finish through the swamp which was absolutely horrible and I ran late by 6 minutes.
So, I can blame only myself for not winning the race today (I do think Martin made a great result ). Although coming 3rd in both today and the overall open score series is a positive result, to say the least, so can not be unhappy about it.
Overall a good BOSS season, but definitely expect more from myself. Good preps to the Nationals.
