A tough course, especially when not feeling tip top but I managed it all fine. Chest was not working as well as hoped but it worked well enough to not stop me running. It was muddier than last year but I actually found it not that much harder, and struggled less on the uphill sections (walked a few steep bits last year). Probably could have gone a little faster if I had pushed a lot more, but I weighed up how I was feeling, the conditions, and the threat from behind (low: just George ;-)) and decided to just keep it steady. Good to see you at the end, grimacing at me… haha. Happy with 6th, probably didn’t deserve it in fairness as I didn’t push hard.
