Not the 72 I was hoping for but that was always ambitious, particularly with the hills in the first half. Started well, there was lots of wiggling through the Park and multiple ups and downs; which was frustrating. Slog to the top of the Park, by which point I was already alone, and early gains had been wiped out on target pace. The 72 went out of the window on the drag from Jubilee all the way up to Wollaton Hall, 3km of constrant up hill where I lost 1min on target pace. It felt like it took about 4 miles to recover from that hill.
Got caught by a pack towards the end including Katrina Wootton. Sat in behind her for a bit of a rest for couple of km before a sprint last 400m to take a couple of places. 17th overall
