Let me sum this up...
1. Lake of silt
2. Long run up grass slope to transition
3. Hilly bike course
4. Wind (my mortal enemy)
5. Hilly run course
6. Oozing blood from various cuts
7. Stiff from bike fall
Add all those factors together and you have...one of the best experiences of my life!
LOVED IT!
It was tough, my swim was kick was pathetic due to post-fall stiffness, my cycling was quite scaredy-cattish, my run was good, overtaking lots of people but limited by post-fall stiffness - but afterwards I felt SO proud and pleased to have finished.
15th in my age group (25-29) not too bad for a first GB Champs!
