Pretty happy with this, racing Pete (Gateshead) throughout from my wave start. Was ahead for the first half then he got a bit of a gap at the start of the second. I closed up with about 500m to go but he pulled away again to finish 5s ahead. Bit hillier than expected but a great route. Will have to come back again.
Nice to be back in some sort of shape. Now to work out what the next race will be.

Got invited to this a couple of weeks ago and was keen to have a bit of a blast out though my legs were feeling a bit tired from the weekend.
Set out hard-ish and quickly regretted leading it out as I was dying after a couple of minutes. But no one came past so kept at it.
Hit the fell gate and lost a bit of time through routechoice as the guy behind kept to the track a bit longer rather than going straight. At the bend in the wall I kept on my bearing and was heading a fair way to the right of everyone here. I was a bit surprised as I thought more people would just follow me to be honest, but as I ground my way up I was solo. Spotted a faint glow from the head torch of the marshals at the top checkpoint and was quite chuffed with my bearing so sped up and over to it rounded and headed back down.
Drifted slightly left on the way back and hit the wall a bit low down but again everyone else was too far left so gained a bit more time. After that it was just a track run. Thought my shoes were starting to come apart a little towards the end as it felt weird but I think its just the sole being a tad too narrow for my foot.
But overall loved the race, the chance to race properly and had an absolute ball out there!
