Scottish Nights Champs, Glend Dye, Deeside.
So much more than the British nights could offer! Great map, great forest, great race. Started out OK and got into a good stride before really stuffing up my exit from 5 and getting confused/losing confidence - forced myself to find a track junction but my confidence had gone and I bottled it from my attackpoint. Lost 4 minutes to Fraser. The rest of it was OK barring a small miss at 12. Feeling sorry that I'd beaten my chaufeurr (Purves) but really enjoyed it and it's not often I beat Muzza in his backyard!
Biggest injury of the night came from trying to open a bottle of beer with a penknife (just the top of a finger thankfully).
