BOC Relays, Torphantrick; 3rd Leg on M40 team with Ross & Fraser. Bronze :-)
Relays save the weekend again. Apart from a sore R achilles and swollen L ankle, I wasn't suffering any ill effects from yesterday, so was quite up for the relays, and was even pretty relaxed, right up to the point when Andy M announced Fraser on the run-in as handing over to me in third place. Sh*te!
Off I shot, no idea how far behind 4th and 5th were, but thankfully kept the panic at bay and was pretty solid right up to #10, when I had the home straight in my sights, and promptly missed the rather vague control by two minutes. As I ran back into the control I was dreading seeing a couple of fast M40s steaming into the depression from the correct direction but all was quiet, so I bagged it and sped off, listening hard for feet behind me.
The legs were tiring in the last loop but when I crawled up the finish straight, I was mightily relieved to hear myself announced as bringing home the Bronze medal. Pheeewww! TRIMP 122.4.
