Down at the lake again, in sunshine for a change, but it was still windy! My first ever handicap race, one lap of the lake, quite good fun but a bit of a lung-buster. The lap is 3.6km, I did it in 18:08 as opposed to 18:30 and 22:30 for the duathlon laps a while ago. I'm pleased with the improvement in my time - it equates to just over 5 mins per km so slightly slower than my best 5k pace (but my best 5k was on non-muddy roads with no wind!), and I was suitably exhausted at the end. I overtook one person and was overtaken by three. Results.
I did cycle down and back - as did Mark, who came to do his beginners' session and managed 4 x 5 mins + 3 mins (schedule was 3 x 5 + 2) around the lake again.
