Ruby Miller Reports
Back from the National Cyclo-cross Championship
"I felt really good at the start of the race and
went into the first corner in first position and kept it most of
the way around the first lap, until the first technical section
where I slipped on some roots and my chain came off.
By
the time I had put it back on I was back in 4th position. But I
pressed on and gave it my all trying to get back into
contention. On the second lap I took over Hannah Barnes and
moved up into third position closing down on Hannah Shenton and
Lucy Garner who were in first and second, and on the start of
the third lap I caught them and pushed on passed them not
letting them get onto the back of me. At the start of the last
lap I was still out in first position and kept pressing on.
But
approximately half was around the last lap I noticed Lucy had
made a break on Hannah S and was catching me up. I pushed on
even more and won by 11 seconds with Lucy coming in 2nd and
Hannah coming in 3rd, making me national cyclo-x champion."
