SHI Relay last leg

In a team with Jonny C and Ed C. Set off in 5th, Jonny did pretty well but Ed dropped time. Having seen the Scotish teams go off in a big lead I new it would take something special to overhaul them. I set off Spongey style and really pushed the first few but also keeping good control. Clean through the first 3 and then had the welsh team (set of ~5mins ahead) and Ben S (set off ~90s ahead) in my sights and reeled them in up to 6. Ben then kept ahead through the next few - I felt I was running faster but kept trying and failing to take better lines; particularly 7 where sticking to the path was much quicker (I went straight).

Slight miss at 9 where I was about to go to the right place and though I saw a punter punch the control higher up the spur (~20s). Shite route to 10 by going low then lost me ~40s. Then didn't see the route to the gate and had to turn back on 11 (~30s). Had a shite line to 13 going far too high (~40s). Paced dropped on the next couple up hill. Decided to go round the paths late to 15, if I had decided straight away it may have been about the same time but lost ~15s. Tried to push hard again on the last loop but lost ~30s at 18 heading to an identical pit and hill just outside the circle. Home in 3rd behind 2 Scots team. We got a right raping today from the filth to the north.

So I made quite a few mistakes, maybe 3mins total but was only 24s off the fastest leg (Kris) so faily satified. Got running 3rd leg sorted just need to take the same mentality into my individUAl performaces. (Work to do Hodgo!)
