3'37 today! Rolling start but I had been going quite hard on route
expecting to stop at the start line. I'm determined to get under 3'30
this weekend, and under 3'00 by the summer! Thanks for setting up the
challenge.


Ha ha. 3'21. And bugger that hurt. The wind was even more fierce than on
my first attempt, but just as I was thinking about giving up (3'00 in) I
thought "sod it" and sprinted[1] for the line.

[1] To a passerby it would probably appear to involve breathing harder
with no obvious gain in speed.

Time duly uploaded to site. I can see I am going to have to pull my socks
up.

Well done.

Tom.
