And so to Clumber Park. The site of last years debacle. Last year at Clumber I discovered that my aspirations to compete for GB were just that, aspirations. I was nowhere near making the grade. This year I was far more prepared. I knew who I had to beat and had been studying the form ........ with the aid of tri247.com and not The Racing Post.
I lined up on race day knowing that after 2 hours in the "hurt box" I would know if I was on track to qualify at Swindon in April. Clumber was intended to be part of my build up for qualification. Unaware of how my back would hold up after forcing me to rest all week prior to the event.The opening run was a shocker, I monstered the bike and then managed
to hold off all of the faster runners who had managed to stick their bikes to the tarmac whilst trying to push 53x12 into a headwind. After the initial "shall I vomit" debate after crossing the finish line. Mrs H did the maths and informed me that I might have done enough to qualify
Now it's confirmed, Rimini here I come.

Now what do I do until September?
Next stop Swindon
