Comment :
Drove up with Paul Heekin and arrived about 30 mins before the start. Decided early to give it a right blast at the end. Plan was to try to keep something in reserve. As per usual, got caught up in the buzz at the start and opened up way toooo fast. The course climbed for the first 3 km and as we finished climbing I reckon I was nearly spent. I think since my body is not used to running this fast, these short races for me, are "real painfests", that I struggle to deal with.
I was caught at the end by Aisling Van Rensberg who I seem to have grown a bit of friendly rivalry with and finished with a joint PB of 31.28.
Was hoping to run sub 31 mins but due to the hilly nature of the course, I was happy enough.
