Been feeling rough since Sunday afternoon, was pretty exhausted on the trip home yesterday, and properly crashed now. Rest day and will hopefully recover quickly.
JK Relay. Leg 3 with Jamie S and Nixon. Out 5th (4th of competitive teams) but not far behind. Passed NOC (Rich R) on way to 2, and could see Halden in front pretty soon. Caught EBOR (Speakey) coming out of the sprint section, but Sasha wasn't far behind! Speakey and Haakan both missed the 8th (I had the other forking) so I got ahead of them there. Caught up the n/c NZ team on the way to 11 and then was alone. Didn't look back until running across to the 3rd last, and there was nobody in sight. Happy not to have to race back up the hill for the victory! Jamie and Nixon were waiting on the run-in.
Nice to finally win the Trophy again after 5 years of INT domination (last other winners Street-Schorah-gg in 2010 as ShUOC).
