Training Log Archive: Uncle JiM

Hadn't done a MTBO event in a while, was told to start and I hadn't folded my map yet, quickly put it on the mapboard and headed of, but went straight over the big hill. Not use to looking wide, got into lots of lactate. Tried to settle down on the long 2nd leg, but still in a bit of a panic, got into the grove before I hit the technical part, caught Bryan , he tried to sit on me, so I had to push harder.
Clean ride and felt much stronger towards the end, got 3rd place, 10 secs in front of Grant Lebbink, also happy that AJ did not catch me, as he started 6 mins after I did

Didnt feel to good at the start today, planting Maize until midnight the night before is very much to blame. Got home at 2 am and up again at 6.30. Wont be doing that again
