Llanwrda I Caio

Cracking little random race which starts from Llanwrda and finished in the little village of Caio 7 miles later. With no idea of the route I started steady and tried to gain a little speed as the race went on. A huge hill 2 miles in I showed gd legs to push the pace and pass the front runners. Settled down with JT to get some time on the others and hit some gd pace. But then after a couple of bad navigation errors we hit a cross road with no flags for direction. With little idea of the route we waited for GP who knew the route. After 6-7 min of walking and faffing  we finally found a farm route which was flagged we continued on but with a mile left we got lost again. Turning on to an A Road we finally had sight of Caio but just when I put the hammer down for a sprint a group of 4 runners join the road from a footpath 100 ahead and my head dropped. Finished with a laugh as the race was bit of a flop. Fair play to JT  who  actually passed the other group on the line to take the win, a reward of a Gallion and a soft toy.
