Epsom 10 went pretty well and I'm now pleasantly tired-but-not-shattered with 42 miles on the bike to get there and back. Good endurance block. 57:24 on the Garmin, and 3rd overall. Winner was Scott Overall (!) in 52:40-something. Despite a slight downhill first mile in 5:16 it wasn't long before Overall disappeared out of sight with one other guy. First half was hilly, second half flat/undulating, so splits were all over the place, yet I was within half a minute of my Maidenhead 10 time in the Spring, which is flat, so very pleased with that. And I won £50 hard cash! :-)
