So I had hoped to write up a report about this race, but as ever I have found that by not writing something immediately, life gets in the way. My girlfriend however, managed to get something down, so here is a link to her blog. Having run the race with her, although her report offers a different perspective, I would say it is a (mostly) accurate account of events.

What am I bringing to the party you may ask? (other than my excellent pacing ;-)) - well here are some photos that I did manage to take of the race, and a pictorial account of the day.
Yet another fantastic CTS event and in great conditions (as usual). Next up a block of serious training for Challenge Roth....
