Run race 1:41:24 [4] 15.7 km (6:28 / km) +860m 5:04 / km
shoes: Roclite 285
Cwmdu Fell race
Tried to start slower then I have done in this type of thing in the past. Was fine going up first climb, then started to slip places on the gentle slope along the top. Got a couple of places back on the final little climb to the first summit. Then the first downhill was also pretty gentle and runnable. A couple of technical bits where i got ahead.
The second climb was pretty deadining, and i was movely quite slowly by the top, having walked most of it. Then across the top got caught by a group.
Then there was a technical descent, nice soft heather to start with, i went off the front with another guy, and we put a lot of space between us and the others. Desperate for some water now, as it was quite hot. But all i had was a waterproof jacket and trousers which wasn't particuarly useful.
Was so knackered on the third climb, that i walked the gentle tarseal uphill. Was in a very dark place near the top of the third climb. Ended up a bit in no mans land after the cairn. I maintained my postion to the finish, with the group infront pulling away, and nonone really catching me.
I think this is the longest running race I've ever done. Overall good training, but i'm not sure I enjoy the suffering and getting beaten by vet women.... Would've been more pleased to finish a little higher up, but with large chunks of long flatish non-technical sections I guess it didn't suit me.
Could feel my right calf that i twinged bouldering last night, but otherwise fine.
Thanks for the bumbag Marcus.

The "Hargreaves Hunt" with Mark S & Adam. We searched high and lo for Mr Hargreaves who is rumoured to be in the process of rapid completion of his new Ashton court map. We failed on our mission to find him, despite numerous callings into the undergrowth.
Felt strong in legs, but weak in stomach. Got followed by a dog, for only the second time had to eventually take it back to it's owner.
