JOHN CARR SERIES 1 of 3
19.30 Wednesday 8th May
Great atmosphere and the race didn't disappoint from what I'd heard. Ballistic start and crazy pace for the first mile. The short off road and muddy track section nearly saw me are over tit. Pockets of support at key junctions and the invaluable contribution of the marshals was welcomed. The course is a little bit disorientating. And I didn't like the sharp 180o turn at the traffic cone.
The second half is all about consolidation. And it reveals if you went off too fast. Mini battles occur and by the time I was back past the start line and descending into Esholt village I thought I'd left plenty in the tank to have a power finish. Wrong.
I fininshed 3 second over 22 minutes urgh and about 40 seconds ahead of the Tonymator, but around a minute behind Grunter Smith.
