Felt really good out of the start triangle only to get myself on the wrong side of some garden beds W of 1. Really suboptimal route to 3 because I couldn't see the more direct way through, which was there but I was really worried about going OOB. Had a brain fart half way to 7 when I thought "Oh fuck, which bit am I up to?", but took a second or two to confirm where I was rather than doing a headless chook impression. Was probably partly due to having over taken the guy 1 min ahead, who kept up with me to 8 but then I dropped him.
Caught site of Graeme (Harris not Labrooy) as I was heading to 9. He started 4 minutes up but I couldn't quite reel him in.
Clean enough through the rest, although I felt like I could have run a bit harder but was worried about inducing brain farts. Maybe should have just tried to hammer a bit more anyway.
Managed to beat OMT - OMG! More importantly, I beat Ceri, bloody W35A bandit that she is :)
Thanks Juffy and Bryce. Good fun. Really wanted a longer run but wasn't keen on 21E quarantine shenanigans. Looking forward to StSW that's for sure.
