GBR Selection Race - Hampsfell & Eggerslack
-
3rd (2nd Top year) +0:21
So annoyed with number 11. Was going perfectly up until then. Spiking everything and shifting pretty well. Then caught sight of Ewan on the way to 7 and the race started to fall apart. From that point on I was more focused on racing and catching him than actually navigating. 8 was okay but then 9 & 10 were both very lucky. Fully caught up to him halfway to 11 and went past him. Direction was already pretty poor and went into the wrong reentrant. Faffed around and then ended up in the reentrant just west of the control, realised and hit it. 12 was just panic mode and was very lucky Caitlin had just gone through as most likely would have missed it.
Result wise it was pretty good but was 50 seconds ahead of Joe at 10 and ended up 20 down. But, two 2nd places (top years) is pretty good.
