Made it up my mountain. Top five in each age group were posted on the prestigious results table. I was sixth by 1 second! We were very close together the whole way around and my plan was pretty much to stick with her and I did. But I didn't have the welly to push on past her on the final slope. In fairness, had I pushed, she would have pushed too and we'd both have arrived knackered. I did say I had as much chance as Corbyn - close but not enough. Still, only the top 3 got prizes so nothing lost. It was hard and hot and I learned that I suck at trail (I was even slower on the way back down although that wasn't part of the race) and confirmed what I already: I don't know how to really push myself. My lungs felt like they would burst and I walked a lot up the steepest bit; but 30 seconds after arriving, I felt fine. Even after running down again, my legs aren't tired. I'm pretty sure they should be tired. Gun time: 35.24 (minus 10 sec to get over the start line) so pretty much what I predicted (35). I would have liked to have been a wee bit quicker though. Feeling a bit underwhelmed and disappointed; not sure why. People here are not all that chatty and friendly so I didn't even bother to stay for the pasta as I suspected I'd be sitting alone feeling awkward. I have photos and will blog tomorrow - once I get my cable as phone apparently does not have enough memory/is too stupid to post photos to gallery. |
