British Middle Champs - Stanton Moor.
Left my whole o bag at Andy and Toni's so fir panicked trying to sort stuff out - thankfully my o shoes were in the car and I had Matthew's SI card I could declare.
Still feeling ill but up for it- hearing tales of how technical the first part was.
Took it steady and safe and was in contention until we cam out of the tricky stuff and the cross country began. Died on the heathery climb and couldn't push myself hard thereafter.
Happy to settle for 5th.

British Sprints Final - Loughborough Uni.
A much trickier final and I lost the plot 5 controls in (probably trying too hard), couldn't relocate quickly and went backwards after that.
A great win for Andy S!

FVO evening event at The Hermitage.
Not up to much with a really stuffy head/sinuses so collected some controls with Fi. Fi taking the better routes....
A pint at the Westerton helped. Took long enough to come!

Steady run from work.
Body a bit battle weary, sinuses leaking.
Good to be out in a more typical Scottish spring day - driving rain and howling gales ;-)
