Shameless Strava Segment Hunting

While supporting friends on a cycling tour of northern Spain I managed to squeeze in some running.

We went for a gentle run one evening and on syncing with Strava I noticed that a barely-run segment championship record was well within my grasp if I pushed.

So the next morning I got up early and gave breakfast a miss to see if I could bag a crown!

It was off road with a few tricky turns but I went out hard and just tried to hold on.

Here's my pace (including warm up & cool down):

Only when I got back amd synced my watch did I find out if I'd secured the crown....

Boom! Shamelessly taken but for how long?

I did something similar near Jaen last summer and have just had notification that someone else has taken my crown. I wonder if this one will stand as long?
