Ran the 21km last year mainly on big wide fire trails and got all jealous of the 12km runners who got to spend most of the race on purpose-built windy single tracks. So I didn't want to miss out on that this year, and it didn't disappoint: probably the most fun race route I've run around here, great to do it over a shorter distance where you can really push, and with all the big boys running the 21km I had a relatively peaceful experience. Pleased with my race - felt strong to the end and had a big smile on my face most of the way. Speed isn't great but nice to be able to keep pushing. Took the CR, which was nice because it partially offset losing my 21km at the same time! (although that was to the legend that is Shaun Creighton, and by only 1min, so I'm happy to accept that)

Warm-up and down with Mark, plus a bunch of other 21km runners for the warm-down (incl Shaun).
