Event: British Middle Distance Championships
 

Got nearly to the start when I realised I had forgotten my bib, got back to the start with just under a minute to spare.

was distracted after messing around trying to start on time, so lost 30 seconds on number 1 and then about a minute on number 3, then had a good stretch where I was running with Olly and Ben, but tried to cut a corner on the way to 19, I got pushed right by the thicker vegetation without noticing, and ended up running perpendicular to the direction i thought I was going, thankfully a ditch cught me and I relocated, but I had already lost about 3 minutes. After that i slowed down as i had nobody to race against, nearly mis punched by going to the first control i could see at 20 instead of using the map.

Out from Chris's, down to the canal, past the farm with the two deer, up to the park through Ryles wood, then straight up the cage, left along the ridge, back under the railway, across the level crossing, back over the railway again and finished through the back streets.

Then went to find the others, who were coming a different route back from the cage, ran to the top of the hill before meeting them, them had a very easy run back down with them.
