Booths XC at Cheddesdon
Really didn't know how this would go, ended up a bit better than hoped but I know I'm capable of better. First lap was none eventful and fine, sitting in 3rd/4th. After the river crossings Stuart King pull away fast, and I started struggling, dropping to 7th after 3/4 of race, HR dropped massively too but didn't have anything else in the tank. Crossing the two rivers was once again a big benefit and the 5-10s gap to the group in front disappeared. The group started pulling away again until the final 200m where from nowhere, extra gears emerged and I surged to take 4th, just, with scratches to my ear after a fight with a bush on the inside line.
