From the Brittons, longish run with some steep climbs every so often, and a good quick stride out across the golf course to finish.

Event: British Middle Distance Championships
 

Got nearly to the start when I realised I had forgotten my bib, got back to the start with just under a minute to spare.

was distracted after messing around trying to start on time, so lost 30 seconds on number 1 and then about a minute on number 3, then had a good stretch where I was running with Olly and Ben, but tried to cut a corner on the way to 19, I got pushed right by the thicker vegetation without noticing, and ended up running perpendicular to the direction i thought I was going, thankfully a ditch cught me and I relocated, but I had already lost about 3 minutes. After that i slowed down as i had nobody to race against, nearly mis punched by going to the first control i could see at 20 instead of using the map.
