Uni Parks TT
With the cross country club, set off in groups of 3 at minute intervals. 3 laps of the park. I got paired with a couple of guys I've been similar to in sessions, which was good. I backed myself as I tend not to work as hard as some others in sessions I find, for better or worse.
Settled in with Felix early on, halfway through lap 1 I tucked in behind him and thought I might be made work to hang on, but I ended up moving ahead towards the end of lap 1. From here I spent a decent stint solo, kind of the rest of the run to be honest. Got a lovely 500m support stint from James who nestled in with me halfway through lap 2. I was feeling pretty good in general and was quite confident I'd paced it well. A couple of pedestrians to contend with and the occasional outstretched arm for 2m, but no drama, which I think was mostly directed at the organisers.
Starting lap 3 I got sight of the 3 girls who has started a minute ahead. One dropped out after the 2 laps, but still had Grace and Floren ahead so I slowly reeled them in which helped with the 3rd lap. Passed Grace with probably about 1km left and I was able to pick it up a bit for a strong finish.
Ended up putting a bit over 1min and 2mins into the other 2 on my start time which was good times. Good fun, feeling relatively strong, and just generally nice to do something more meaningful than a session. Looking forward to a couple more.
