Got off to a shocking start. Kellie caught 4 min on me by 5 and from 6 I started to concentrate better & kept up with her until 2nd last. I then blew up and lost a minute in the last few hundred metres... I was lucky that once she caught me I was able to relax and run well whereas she was a bit thrown I think. This kept us leap-frogging each other for the course, very good race practice & a learning experience for both of us! Very pleased with my planning and executing of the long leg.
Was lucky that she spotted I was about to run off with a course 2 map instead of course 3 - whoever thought Adrian and Graham should run a harder course than the girls, especially given they're both officially old men now?????
