Wrekin Wrecker fell race
Probably a bit ambitious given recent goings-on. Not feeling too sprightly beforehand. Set off ok, feeling alright on the first up. Down the main track and then onto the steep 'scree' descent. Someone's got a funny idea of scree around there - hardly a rock in sight, but steep and lots of leaves.
Got going and then some - slowed myself on one tree, heading towards another pair. Twisted to avoid, stopped momentarily, backwards, against the next. Carried on down, slope eased off, right calf felt a bit funny.
Onto and along main track. Calf not very happy, body feeling knackered, not really wanting to run. Decided that the tester would be the really steep ascent to the summit - reached that, 5 steps up and knew it wasn't happening.
Walked/hobbled back to the finish (3.4km, 45 mins), didn't like any of the ups at all, pain every time any power was put through the muscle. I'm hoping/thinking I must have whacked it against a tree on the descent and that's it is just badly bruised and swollen. Nothing seemed to go 'ping' anyhow...
