A local run which is 10k in length and looks easier on the maps than on the legs. An open field of mainly local runners the weather was against us a little with the strong winds. A group of 4 of us took off and settled to a easy pace, 3 k gone it was still easy so put the hammer down to get a little bit of excitement going. Turned at the 5k point in the front 2 but was struggling to increase the pace. Dropped to 2nd and with 1k to go I was happy to take the runner position. Leader gave me a glom our of hope when he strolled to the finish and having made up ground I failed to push enough to take the win. 36min in those conditions was a gd result and gets me ready for nxt weeks duathlon in pembs.
