Water Belts

The rest of last weeks purchases where of no use at all today:

• A cap to keep off the sun (no sun today 16 degrees and drizzle)
• A utility belt (water carrier) Of no use in a race of only 12k and with 3 feeding stations.

Although there was a guy waring a water belt, and he overtook me on one of the first hills. Tee hee, I tucked in a few meters behind him and decided that there was no way he was going to finish before me. Just a little mind game. I imagined that he could not have run the distance before otherwise why carry the extra weight.

True to form, he did not last too long, he petered out after only a few kilometers.

Came in at 50 minutes (plus a couple of seconds) not sure about position yet. Waiting on results posted on the Internet. Mostly trail and "undulating" somewhere between 250 and 300m of elevation gain.
