Not as enjoyable as I hoped. 16 seconds slower than last year and I was actually pleasantly suprised that that was all the difference was. Felt good before the start but once we got going everything just seemed like hard work, breathing was heavy and the legs felt like lead. It got a bit easier after the turn and managed to keep myself focused better chasing Rachael down and knowing that Alice would be close behind me. Managed to find a bit at he end which made me feel a whole lot better and happy to put this one behind me and look forward to the next one.
One of those nights perhaps? And your feedback at the end is great. Just move on, plenty more opportunities. What I would say is that Alice and Rachael both gratefully appreciated your support. Both achieved personal bests and you played a role in that. That should be very satisfying as you could easily have sulked when your own race didn’t pan out as you hoped. Also Esmee has been in touch too because of your kind words, so thank you. All in all you contributed an awful lot to the Team on Wednesday, your time will come I’m confident of that. Thanks Andy.
