Big Five-O day two, Kaapsehoop Battery Creek
M21E 16.1km 580m, WRE
13th of 28 including 9 dnf
Brutal day, proper full-on classic distance.
The Finnish team decided to skip it so won by Nick B in 128mins.
A few smallish mistakes but mostly just a survival battle to keep going to the finish. Two very tough hilly physical loops near the end once we were tantalisingly near the finish.
Dave hit the wall and was cramping so had to stop at #27 (of 31), frustratingly near the end. Martin had trouble with a vague clearing at #16 which meant I caught him at #18, we were together for a while and then I gradually pulled away after #22, certainly neither of us moving at any great speed by then!
Pleased to finish :)
