Trail running 4:07:30 [3] 37.0 km (6:41 / km) +3500ft 5:51 / km
shoes: Hoka Speedgoat
Regular Irregular LDWA from Brockholes.
Very cold.
Had a bad cold all week so felt awful from the start.
Set off slow, but still had to wait for second runner to catch me up. Same bloke as last year. Ran together for 20 odd miles until he pulled away as I crawled up the last hill. Fortunately he then went off the route and I overtook him. When he caught me up again he sensibly stayed with me so as not to get lost. Same time as last year. Must get some answers as to what right ankle is so painful and must stretch/do mobility work to try and prevent the pathetic shuffle that the longer distances bring on. I don't seem to run out of energy, just can not move efficiently to maintain a reasonable pace.
Man Flu returned with avengance after race. Also completely knocked out all day Sunday.
