Doesn't seem right to select 5 for intensity when I was so slow, but I really struggled, walked the uphills even stopping, even walked some of the downhills. My heart I could feel beating strongly throughout. I was first M45 to start and 2nd last to finish.
i had feeling I wasn't going to be 100% but my improvement since Wed had been quite good, so I thought I may as well try at start and maybe i'll go OK. The start was steep uphill and it wasn't long before I red-lined and I don't think I recovered from that for the rest of the course. and as I was in such oxygen debt my navigation was poor as well.
I finished which was really my goal considering the previous week
