Only 5 athletes braved the freezing temperatures to compete at Watford. Not only was it cold, but a freezing wind made it a lot worse. Numbers were depleted due to several injuries. Rob Hoodless and Rachel Baker took the honours virtually unchallenged. Rob was a clear 6 minutes ahead in the mens race and Rachel was well ahead of Claire. Steve Alden took second but was below par with a probable virus, and Matt Record was less than a minute behind him, probably not realising just how close he was! Claire Cresswell took second place in the girls race, with another gritty performance in demanding conditions.
