Scottish 5k SIlverknowes.
Good conditions and feeling okay and ready to race. Set off trying to not go crazy as all the little kids flew off. Tailwind for first k in 2:56. Just sat behind Carcas and Jack in a group. As we got round the top loop we merged into a big group in the wind and I settled in the middle. It felt comfortable but decided I wasn't pushing on till at least 3k. Then at 3k Jack went and so I moved out and tried to push on a bit (slow down less than others). Obviously Murray came past again after starting slower. I really struggled from 3.5-4.5 but then found something in the last 500 and managed to kick on past Carcas and had a full on sprint finish left.
Great fun racing on a lovely evening. Lacking in the back third but happy enough with the time.
