Event: HH Ace of Herts SE League Event
 

HH N Ashridge - Short Green, had entered short blue but achilles still iffy.
Scrappy race. Did the basics right with plenty of bearings but not great on executing them with all the fallen trees.
2. Crossed road onto wrong path and took time to realise. -30s.
5. Large unmarked shallow depression close to control threw me. -20s
6. Not sure if I took a bearing and didn't go far enough. -60s
9. Influenced by someone ahead and hit slope on wrong side of deep reent. -45s.
Finish - went down to beat someone when control was on the top track! -20s
Legs packed up a 1k from the end. Just not run enough of late and felt sick at the end.
A deceptively tricky course, caused in part by many fallen trees preventing perfect bearings.

Achilles was worse than expected. Hopefully it will be no worse than fortnight ago.
Want to attend events as C is hooked, but not sure about the wisdom.

Albury-Blackheath-Shamley-gravel loop-back via railway
Exploring loop to find best surfaces. Plenty of mud and came off twice onto feet as a pro and sideways like a novice!
Moving time 1.41.
