Wetherby Urban 6.8km 1st vet.
Hot day. Tried not to start too hard and pick up speed later. Worked up to a point. Caught Parkino around 25 mins in and chased him down which helped me to pick up the pace. Pushed on at end, but still lagging badly on gentle drag up to finish. Win by 50 seconds.
Looks like a route choice error by me to go left on way to #2 instead of following railway to right.
One very interesting split time on #9 where my 2:15 split was second fastest behind 1:26! Did someone climb the uncrossable crags?

Left calf sore during warm down so strapped up now.

C • Left or right 2

Yeadon Urban A course from Oct 2012
Hot weather (23 degrees) made this a struggle.
Glutes tight and having to work hard all way round.
Accidentally missed out #13 (30secs).
2012 44:19 including about 50 secs saved by controls not synced properly so 45:10 would be more accurate, winner took 80 secs to cover last 450m and 3 controls). No errors/dead-end finding this time. Just hard work.

12 x 30 secs (30 secs rest) in Honley Park. Only needed to do 10, but seemed a shame not to do an extra pair. Only glutes moaned a bit.
