*First controlled race ever. Glens sms before start: "Thrust your fitness and don´t be silly." I tried and it worked. Very hard terrain with little running and much climbing and forcing through soft surface. I started slow and managed to overtake people towards the end, instead of vice versa - which has been the story so far - I'm 28 now and this is the first time i ran like this (I am serious - not once have I been the one to beat people in the end of a race - I have always started with the lead and crashed & burned - or succeded in keeping my position, very seldom, though). This was the first real race for the season and I'm glad it started of well.
