North Staffs XC Winsford - 41st?

Tough work, harder than excepted but not surprising given only one weeks decent training and this stinking cold which is still lingering around. Seems Stoke had every man and his dog out today. Based on last years performance I would be much further up, work to be done.

Harriers after a few pints. Long day in the northern smoke which surprisingly ended up with a few pints with Vally. Belly wasn't feeling great.

Final run in Sheffield as a student - twilight Rivelin. Strange run to complete a few strange days. Mixed feelings.

The Athletics Club has completely moved through a generation and subsequently has a considerably different feel to it now. Along with this most of the 'Dirty Milers' have graduated. I feel ShUOC is in a similar situation - when i joined, there were so many good orienteers, now there is just a hand full. However, unlike the Athletics Club, ShUOC needs members who understand the sport and without this, the club will continue its struggle. Hopefully ten Barry Wainwrights turn up to the freshers meal.

Despite this, Ive had a great time over the past four years. Lots of reasons to come back and visit over the next year, but I'm looking forward to the next set of challenges. Theres some cracking oppertunites on the table and I'm looking forward to kick starting the running and orienteering now the masters year is complete.

Delamere Trail Half Marathon for Dads birthday - 2nd.

Looks like the famous NW trundle wheel has another victim. Tough work. Not helped via getting a bit carried away at the start - 5.51, 6.10, 6.35, 6.36 for the first four. Nice piece of silverware and prizes though.
