Running 31:33 [4] 5.63 km (5:36 / km) +250m 4:35 / km
BUCS Relay, Dumyat.
1st leg for the Dalkeith Bad Boys. When we were setting up the assembly I'd assumed the control just the other side of the arena was a spectator, but no it was the start kite - meaning a savage uphill start. A ginger loughborough guy started pretty hard up the hill and I assumed that was Freddie so tried to make sure he didn't get away. Turns out it wasn't Fred, but did mean was at the front at the top of the hill. And from then on it was Jack, Freddie (actually him this time) and myself at the front. We were quite low on 2 and had to go up, plus a nervy leg to a crag but we were going nice and smooth. Then they had a different gaffle and I was on my own. Just tried to keep it chill and not fuck up - thought I'd failed when I searched just about every crag for one of the controls and just waited to be gobbled up, but it didn't happen.
More good stuff from Ali and Tam meant we came 2nd, so that was nice.
Had a lot of fun today - course was really fun, good atmosphere and day was beaut (yet Harri still wore a buff???!!!!!). Happy days!!!!
Wonder how many races there are where pretty much everyone in the field is hanging hard, having had a sweet social and not so much sweet sleep the night before??
