SMOC Regional at Salcey Forest: 47.19 for the 6.1K (excluding the timed crossings). As expected the general rule of avoiding forests between the A1 and M1 (south of the Mids) was upheld today. Mostly light green forest with head high thorns that was also pretty unpredictable in terms of runnability. Never really easy and legs tightened on the track sections too. However, was fairly clean - only a few hiccups and wobbles, mostly off-line in the green stuff. Struggled again physically - but that's due to the lack of intense or terrain training.
