Fun race starting off with Glenn Horrocks, Brooner, Bart and Alastair but stupidly followed Brooner well south of #3 so Glenn got ahead. Alastair and I then ran the next few till we split at #7 only to find it was in the wrong spot allowing Brooner and Bart to catch back up. We all ran through to #10 where Bart and I got ahead. We lost another minute on #11 again in wrong spot and took a less than ideal route choice to #13 where Alastair caught back up. The three of us pretty much ran together till #25 where Bart went the wrong direction but I was getting tired and couldn’t reel in Alastair through the last few controls. Didn’t even get a Sprint finish in. Found out at the finish that Glenn had missed a control so with that knowledge may have tried a bit harder to catch Alastair for the win but doubt I would have got him in a Sprint anyway. Generally, felt a bit tired (assuming from a big week) and sprained ankle part ripping through tape on way to #3 so was quite restricted running in terrain and any rough tracks.
