British Champs, Arncliffe/Kilnsey North
M50L, 2nd place.
Winner James Logue 48mins (!)
A six minute gap in front but 15 people in five-ish mins behind, so v pleased to end up at the front of the non-James pack.
Scrappy start missing #1 then offline to #3 and #4 before also missing #5. Not too much time lost but not to grips with the map at all, struggling with the running too so maybe too much focus on getting moving better rather than actually finding the flags cleanly...
Tough little climb up to #6 and started to move better from there, decent though far from perfect after that other than just after passing Steve W when I dropped some time at #12: went too low after the crossing point and then once I corrected, the depression was not quite as expected relative to the stones and could not find it for maybe 30secs.
Edit: looks like last part of my route to 14 was not the best either, went to the right of the stones beneath the cliffs with unnecessary down and back up. Maybe should have hugged the cliffs and stayed left of the stones, perhaps 20-30s quicker.
Happy with the result though, no chance of beating James so this was the best outcome on offer!

British MSR at Bradford Uni, last leg Vets after Ben and Kirsty.
Out in third ahead of Roger, down to fourth after a horrific description misread at #4 costing 40secs or so. Was going to the right place until I checked the description!
Chasing fruitlessly after that, not helped by a couple more 5-10sec incompetences.

Circuits30:00 [2] shoes: Brooks Launch April 2019
1 set of 30s and one quickfire one of 15s. Low energy first set but perked up a bit for the second.
Not recovered yet for a run down to cinema night though.
