Running warm up/down 18:00 [1] 3.0 km (6:00 / km)
Running 29:30 [5] 6.27 km (4:42 / km) +300m 3:48 / km
Wasn't feeling in top shape warming up, was worried about how I was going to be feeling out there.
Tried to relax on the uphills, but people were then streaming past me on the first climb, which wasn't confidence-inspiring. But, it worked out, and I was feeling strong on the fire-roads and built into it.
Saw Cillín, and Jonny ahead, and then Laurence and Haynesy, so I wasn't too worried about the slow start anymore.
Stayed relaxed / slow on the climbs, and strong / quick on the fire roads. Passed Cillín and Angus just before the final climb, but they both past me at the start of the climb. Caught Angus again halfway up, and caught Cillín on the descent. Nipped by Jonny too - momentum was on my side.
Happy with the way it worked out, still a good bit behind the other 2, but better than Howth.
