Polaroid Cross Country Sat 27th

Last Cross Country race for this year re-scheduled from early Jan saw 10 runners take on the two lap 4 miles + course round the Polaroid Industrial Estate.

A bit of everything, tussocks, forest trail, riverside paths, a cheeky wee Heron, some Ducks, Squirrels, a couple of small undulations but sadly with the low temperatures not a lot of mud.

Took the first lap steady pushing on once the last uphill was out the way, this was fine until half way round the second lap and passing under the bridge to Renton where the wheels fell off a bit.

Dug in again towards the end but still dropped about 40 seconds on the second lap. My 10th effort in a row at this good fun club race, could have done with some more competition to help up the effort.
