slept:4.0 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 24 Blk
Poor night’s sleep as the excitement and absurdity of Eurovision scoring made it hard to wind down. However, pleased that my Strava feed had such influence over the British public vote.
Fairly tired in the legs too so not going too well around Pittville Park, and was seriously thinking about just not trying at all and jogging around the course. But that’s pretty much what I did anyway.
Not caught by any traps and planning ahead fairly well, despite complication of map being spread over two sides. The long legs weren’t particularly difficult route choice - but did change my mind on 4-5 after starting to go north of the lake - main reason because I still remember struggling around on the XC races and wanting to do something different. This is the one leg from the first half I was leading on when I left.
14 onwards I was winning literally every split (before Dan Weaver) so either I started moving better or just tired less than the competition. Still found the lap of the park at the end long and tedious though!

Not able to hang around long after as judging the county track and field champs in Gloucester. Surprisingly enjoyable even in wind and rain. More chatter than I expected, and pleased that I won the bet we had for who would step inside the track on the U13M 1500m :-)
