Did this lumpy old course last year, and I am sure I said not again.....so here I was back on the start line in the chilly drizzle. At least I knew it couldn't possibly hurt as much as the Thanet 20 did a couple of weeks ago.
Well the hills were still there, some of which I had forgotten about, it is only flat for the last 2 miles along Hastings seafront. Was feeling a bit grim by the time I finished (groin strain from Thanet 20 still niggling), and think I have a mild version of the awful V&D bug the kids had all last week. Couldn't even face the traditional cup of tea you get given after this event! An amusing drive back with Deal Tri boys Richard and Paul cheered me up a bit, but spent rest of day not feeling very tip top. Kids much better now though and hoping India will be well enough to race in her first aquathon next Sunday, Chris racing it too, and Kofi and I will be there to support them both.
Richard 1.37.55
Paul 1.49.17
Zoe 1.58.31
Chantal 2.00.08 (1 min 30 secs slower than last year, I blame the rain!)
