The Lanzarote wind wasn’t the only battle yesterday at the #4stagemtblanzarote .. In some parts the wind was gusting to 70kmps so the fight was on for the top3 spots on the female podium between Spain’s @maiafish, Scotlands Isla Short and Germany’s @naima.madlen .. . “Among the women, Spain’s Mayalen NORIEGA BELAUSTEGUIGOITIA (ESP) took the first place with only 1 minute to spare in front of second-placed Isla SHORT (GBR). It was a dramatic victory. “At first, we were going fine, along with the three top female leaders, then I hit a rock and fell, so I spent half of the race catching up with the rest. On the last two kilometers I took the lead and was able to pass Isla.” said Mayalen. It was unfortnate for Naima, though who finished 3rd, and less than a minute behind, getting caught behind some Age Group males thus missing the front pack. .
