4th. Winner: Cam Taylor (40:17, 106%).
Christ on a bike, I forgot how fast short runnable races go out at! Paul Butler and young Jack Willis set the pace with me, Ian and Cam in a pack 40m back, until Dan Middlemass slammed through us after a km. Hit the steep climb and went quite well up it - Cam and Jack were away but a shoe-lace had me close enough to Paul. Thought I might gain some ground on Cam on the flat after that, but he's been working on his flat speed and I didn't have much freshness in my legs after the weekend (and yesterday's long day), so was working pretty hard for not great pace, shown by Ian catching me up on the out section (as Paul eased away), but I got ahead on the back and pulled away on the last descent - even had time for the fastest forest dump ever as my guts were in turmoil - all done in about 3 seconds! (was knackered when I arrived after work so maybe ate a bit too much to get my sugars up).
Endurance not too bad, and I can get a bit of speed back (not that my races until the end of Sept really need it.
