Heslington parkrun - 2nd, 16.55
MB set a CR of 15.58
Would have liked to have been quicker to be honest, gave it everything, so focus really has to be on top end stuff now as that is what is lacking.

MDOC Chapel en le Frith - 2nd
Wasn't going to do this one but a new area added to the balls up I made of Wilmslow changed my mind
Struggled to get into map to begin with, and struggled throughout to identify the paths which seemed a lighter grey than usual. But soon the route became clear, ditched the low numbers and got all 60+ which was the aim.
Wasted a lot of time at 71 as the clue said gate - wasn't on the gate but next to it, and the dot was at the path junction but the clue was on the railway basically...with my work hat on a bit unsafe that!
Gave the little map at the end a go as it had basically been put on for those in the top 5, but don't think it worked as a concept at all, as the result demonstrate there was much benefit in doing an hour and grabbing the high value answers, so the extra map should have included some high values too.
Sounds like I'm moaning but hope it isn't taken that way, more pointers for similar situations in future.

Ben Rhydding O - 4th
Realised on the way there, footwear inappropriate
Set of like a headless chicken but with good reason, to get warm
The had to walk the off road uphill section, missed out #11 stupidly at this point
Knew the path across the GC was there, but faffed finding it including comical fall on backside
Then wasted time at 3 as was reading clue for 4 and looking for non existent telegraph pole
After than all went swimmingly, though with 4 minutes spare should have got 11 as mentioned and 2 after 8, plus maybe one of the moor ones.

6 PM
Running hills 58:40 [3] 8.5 mi (6:54 / mi) +150m 6:33 / mi
12 x 60s uphill (90s) back down
Less of a hill than usual as people were being soft, though steepens to more than usual near the top
Felt terrible warming up so was surprised to run very well during the session itself.
