Nationals. Never seen so much mud in all my life! Sliding everywhere in trail shoes. Was a really cool experience, I just wish I wasn't so average haha. Also felt awful the whole way round - not sure if that's just because I was trying so hard or if I really was having an off day. Felt disproportionately hard work either way! A bit disappointed but I'll get stronger and hopefully come back and actually enjoy this next year.
Cool GoPro video -
