BOC Individual at Brown Clee. Last starter. In th warm up, I felt rubbish. Thighs dead and all, but tried to get beyond that and focus on the Oing. Didn't work. Started with Bill Ed on 45L and he left me standing on the rides through to the open area. Was already stumbling around. Made hash of 1 and then even worse on 2 overshooting by 100m or so. Nothing made sense. 3 was more straightforward so settled and indeed split times were improving. 9th for 6... 100 metres into leg to 7, my (lower) left hamstring popped. I tried to jog, but it was way too sore. Nothing to do except walk back to the finish. The drive back to Brum was painful.
