Midland Champs on Longshaw: 10th on Course 4: started well into the first 3 in the reclaimed quarries and enjoyed the terrain there. Struggled as it got rougher and lost about 3.5 mins on legs 7-9. I also missed the path route to 14 and lost another 1.5 mins there. Don't think my running was good enough and felt very tired going up. Caught by Charlie on route to 16 and that seemed to give me second wind (as well as coinciding with easier, downhill terrain/legs). A good burn-up to 19, when I went through the terrain and was slower than Charlie on the path. Felt dead at end and it's highlighted the need for terrain running!
