running race (BUCS xc) 28:12 [3] 5.99 km (4:42 / km) +1m 4:42 / km
ahr:185 max:198
not keen on xc's but gave it a go. Traumatic flashbacks to being 12 years old on the start line of many muddy, raining and miserable xc's id been forced to run.
first lap was actually pretty enjoyable, remembered thinking "actually having a nice time, suns out, feeling good".
big bonk at start of 2nd lap, phat headwinds didn't help. but got back into it and just got it done. nothing left for a sprint finished so the 4 girls id worked hard to overtake on the lats km or so ran right past me on the final 100m.
still a good day, lucky to be the first race meaning the best of the mud and could;d enjoy watching the rest of the races, especially SC out in front of mens A for a brief exciting moment.
good day with the GU H&H.
