SOL3 Drumlanrig. Short Brown: 8.3km, 280m climb. Usual slow start, dropped half a minute on each of the first three. Got into the swing of things then and was working pretty well until I tweaked my ankle on an uneven track shortly after leaving number 8. Lost a minute and a half hobbling and taking a round the houses route to 9, then was moving poorly for the next 20 minutes until I hit the open and finally managed to stretch out. Surprised to be 2nd, only 2m20 down on Dave; without my bad ankle I'd have been maybe 3 minutes faster.
Beccy twisted her ankle in exactly the same way, as did Caspian - must be a lesson in there somewhere. On the positive side, my back was great, L knee OK, it was a gorgeous day, and I scarfed half of Will's burger nom nom nom. TRIMP 163.3.
