JK Relay leg 1.
In reality not much to go for today with a bit of a weakened team. Still tried to have some fun and legs felt better than expected after yesterday. Moving well at the start and felt nice and in control until messing up 5 and 6 in a row losing ground a big. Still managed to plug away and had caught back by 7 but then ballsed up 8 (only major mistake) losing the pack. Seems like everyone cocked up though bar a few so then got my head in gear and raced properly, planning and code checking well, pulling back up to Rhys and Schminty by the top of the hill. Legs tired from the bottom of the hill up though and they gapped on the top but still only 15s down on them and 50 on Pete so not too bad. Scrappy run though, saved by everyone else's scrappiness I think, need to make sure to be more disciplined out of controls but enjoyed it nonetheless.
Probably the most I've enjoyed a JK. Whilst it was WUOC selection races, I still felt like I was racing with no pressure just enjoyed it all and was happy with how my fitness from the winter came good, especially after the problems in November. Really looking forward to having the same feeling in the coming season, just relaxing in to the O and not stressing out. Good weekend.
