| Interland race - freezing cold and soaking wet! Was a reserve so ended up running 6km course rather than 8km which was good cos I dont think I would have been up to 8. Ran well for the start, couple of mistakes toward the end with about 6 mins time loss overall. Found it quite hard to motivate myself as I had nobody to really compete against or compare myself to, and the weather was miserable! But ran well all the same despite not having done much for months and missing so much training - was tiring towards the end so endurance definitely needs to be built up again. Also early start didn't help, although I was in bed early the night before, we got up at 0630 - 0530 UK time! Body clock hadn't quite adjusted to that!
Wasn't hugely keen on the area, bit scrappy underfoot with brashings and stuff, not particularly nice in any bit but not really nasty either. |
