| Change of tactic, went balls out from the start since it was a flatish race and only 7.5 miles. Managed to hold of people behind. Legs got tired after 17 mins on 1st hill. Thought tactics were shot but turned out to be the right thing to do. Overtook some guy on the down as I was flying then he passed on the ups and never saw him until the finish.
Placed 5th / 250 racers which I was well chuffed with. Only done a handful of trails this year and that was the 1st race. |
