Ran there once & had a headwind on the return leg, it was 2 steps forward & 1 back, trying to slipstream behind a runner in front, & both of us manoeuvring towards the wall section on the right for some shelter..🤣
@@StephenDent-sr6cr I know! The wind is at its worst when it’s in your face coming back (or your marshaling at the turn point or toilet block!!). The best strategy is find someone tall and hope for the best. I’ve just realized it’s me as the RD as well 😜
Nice work, I miss the northeast Billingham I am from 🏁🏁
Thanks 👍, should of pushed a little bit harder in the last km, but you win some lose some I suppose 🤷♂️ 😎
My home course! Its brutal when the wind is in your face 😮
