Stockholm Relay Champs Tyresta-Högsta, H21 Leg 3 8.4km (17/17)
Well, took the whole week off to try and get better but had two low points, Tuesday and Thursday with the latter even including a slight fever. Strange illness that kept losing and gaining momentum. Of course running both days last weekend couldn't have helped but others I have spoken to reported the same thing, thinking that one is better but it turns out one isn't.
Felt ok by Saturday and even with a bad night's sleep felt alright before the race as well. But... awful. Horrific on so many levels. Great 3km leg to number 1 however, saw some massive boletes on the edges of the big marsh en route. Almost went swimming going a little too close to the uncrossable part of it. Very Autumnal out there. Lovely Tyresta terrain, shame I wasn't up for/to it.
Our 1st team came 4th! Showing lots of promise for the future, great that the club has something to offer at an elite level. Otherwise a few other 4ths but no podium places unfortunately. Next up 25manna.
