I had no expectations, and my race start demonstrated this perfectly! But as the race progressed I worked with what I had, which relied largely on technical ability, for my 3 laps. I worked out 10 - 15 min from the finish that I only had 50 min of hard racing in my legs, so suffered hugely but continued to work hard til the end. A finish in 3rd behind the very strong Wendy Snowball and Dora Bettridge.
Round 2 in Sedgwick was like returning to my old stomping ground. Though I haven't raced on this course for a couple of years, the familiarity of it helped mentally. My legs surprised me and I managed to finish in 1st in ahead of Dora (something that won't be happening again any time soon!).
