Saturday 8th September: Surrey Road Relay Champs

Result - 6th

Race Report:

A 6 legged, 3 mile loop around Wimbledon that ran past the famous lawn tennis club, tacking in a steep climb away from the courts, followed by a steep descent into Wimbledon park. Today I acted as Epsom's team manager and as such allowed my men to choose what leg they wished to run. This left me on last, unfortunately by the time I started the field was so spread out I didn't see a soul all the way round, so effectively it was a time trial against the clock. I managed the sixth fastest time of the day and was only 15 seconds away from the second quickest, which was pleasing as all the athletes ahead of me were all involved in battles with one another.
