Wet, wet, wet! Steph went for a pre-race swim in a small bog, whilst Iona and Sarah attempted to warm up in the torrential rain. In the end we all took shelter in the team car: at least our legs would be warm even if they weren't "warmed up".
The rain had just about stopped as we set off. The 3km, predominantly downhill, course was rather hairy with all the spray on the road. There were a couple of narrow bridges to negotiate, as well as some slippery drain-covers, before finishing in the town centre.
Stage 5 results: Kim 18th, Iona 22nd, Sarah 25th, Steph 30th. (1st and 51st places were separated by just 58 seconds).
GC: Kim 4th, Iona 21st, Steph 26th, Sarah 33rd
Team in 5th place overall
