BUCS XC B race - 17th.
Had a horrible start, boxed in behind a load of punters and then to me the race seemed to slow and settle around 500m in. Decided I needed to be further forward to compete so took some aggressive lines and got in ahead of the big pack of St. Mary's boys. Kept a pretty high effort throughout and maybe could have picked it up a bit more in the second lap but was still battling hard and racing so maybe not. Felt strong today though, especially on the hills for the first time in a while and had a real lot of fun with it. Massive improvement on last year and a bit of a confidence boost.
