^ this. It should not be fun. (Edit... until after)
W.r.t. going off fast on 5kms & xc I find getting ahead of folks works as headology as I then know they've got to run faster / work harder to get back ahead unless i fall apart. It's a very fine line to tread though.
I'm going to try this 'go off fast strategy' this evening. I tried it the other week at assembly league but then got caught up I thinking about it data and not simply running. Timer on the watch and a proper race today on the streets of Ipswich.
