Race: Capenhurst 5.5m (border league round 5)
Time/position: 32:05 (32/251)
A distinctly average race in the fifth round of the border league, 6 or 7 places down on the last two races. But, after the disaster in the Wrexham half last week, it was a relief just to feel OK during the race. I was nearly a minute quicker than the last time I raced this route (2006?). It's a fast, rural two-lap affair around the village. Rather breezy conditions: felt OK until the last few hundred metres, then lost a couple of places. This was last season's pattern, so it was a bit annoying for it to happen again. Buckley lengthened their lead at the top of division one: I'm currently 11th SM. A reasonable training week preceded this - with a decent intervals session, a run up Famau on Friday night, and a longish circuit on Thursday.
