M40 Champions again! Third year in a row. Felt pretty jaded from Saturday but ok once out. Good start pretty clear, with Steve and then went scrappy loosing 2min 30 before and after run through. 22.30 would have been an ok time 35.08 wasn't.
Good enough to come in second in first competitive team and just managed to pip Ben, to justify first team selection and beat the women -only just on both fronts.

M40 British Championships - High Dam.
Good field meant that position of 4th probably a poor return on a pretty decent run. 82 minutes just behind Dave who took bronze, Duncan A in 2nd 80 and Nick on 77 min.
Had a great start and then lost 40 seconds at #4 and #5. Leading field at #8 to then lose 1 minute at #9. Lost a 1 minute on route choice to #13, 20 seconds at #20 and that was it. Pushed hard to the end, catching Jez my 6 minute man with 4 controls to go.
Overall lost just under 4 minutes which was still only matching Nick who also binned 4 minutes.
Over the moon to get away with calf and only felt it a little out there. 2 weeks ago gave myself 20% chance of running.
