MTBO race 5:04:33 [4] 87.44 km (3:29 / km) +1758m 3:10 / km
shoes: Lux
94.438km with 1758m climb in 5:04:33. National mtbo score champs 5 hours on hot day with only one bottle was going to be tricky refilling. Went for the clockwise loop to do the new bits for me first. Nice riding tracks bigger than expected. Filled bottle from stream after 50 mins. Needed more after 2 hours but nothing to be had on froggatt edge. Into toilets at Baslow about 2:25. First half was fun.
Second half was about survival and not nice. Went for 22 looking to do 19 but that was going to be a push so opted out. Desperate for water from about 3 hours till about 3:50 when I got to toilets in Eyam. started verging on cramping going up to 15 last time here in a snow storm. Just trying to avoid cramp from here in trying to be sure of the 2 40 pointers above base. Cramping on road after final descent. Happy to be only 5 mins late.
675 5th not to far to 4th MarkR 3rd AndyG 700 Graham well clear in 2nd. Ride the day by Andy Conn 766.

Having had a look at others routes my second half is fairly useless as well as the dieing physically. Was 8 mins up on Andy and Mark after the first half the same and they both outscored me with shorter routes from there to the finish.
