still coughing and sniffling, but wasn't going to miss an urban race on my own turf, turned out the cold didn't spoil the race, heart rate appears to be in the zone, a couple of sub-optimal routes, and almost overshot #1 because I was planning ahead (and was preoccupied by the prospect of a very slippery paved path)
(course length 6.2km and 200m)
5th, 4mins behind Chris McCartney and 25secs from Murgatroyd, guess my speed was effected by my cold
