Running - Trail long 3:21:52 [2] 34.46 km (5:52 / km) +716m 5:18 / km
slept:7.0 weight:72.8kg shoes: Brookes Cascadia 10
Hutcliffe, Eccy, Coit Lane, Porter, Mines, Redmires, Ocean View, High Neb to see the Struggle Stragglers, then straight-line terrain to Pole and Stanage end. Back on paths for Ox Stones, Cannings, Limb, Eccy and Millhouses. Cracker day.
Felt a bit more knackered than ideal after the 4km in terrain, with a can of coke at upper Burbage bridge not even pepping me up too much. Not really managing big double weekends at the moment, but a long day after a race will hopefully have a similar effect. Hoping for a big weekend next weekend but I may be required for Northern Road Relays (which would be fun after a 26+ mile run home).

Set off easy unsure what my body would be up to. Followed Wright's line up Wetherlam - figured he'd have a good one - and felt strong (if not fast) uphill all day. Topped out with a good group but dispatched them up to Swirl How, but they weren't too far behind at 3 Shires. Quick look behind as we left the path and headed XC to Blisoc and had Vic Wilkinson with me. Asked her as we topped out if she was going for the women's record (2:05:2x) and said I'd push on.
Good lines off Blisco (Daz Kay joined us to run with Vic) and was glad of the water from Jenn (Hulley's lass) at Blea Tarn. hit Lingmoor fairly hard, Jacks Wright and Wood seemed to be coming back a little but was focused on getting the best lines for Vic. Needless to say I spender it royally, we ended up in bracken and she was less than 30s outside it just behind me. Great, 2 record attempts fecked up in a year... Vic at least said it wouldn't have been on were it not for my help of Blisco.
Felt comfortably hard throughout, and the climbs felt like I could do them twice at the effort I was going at (though pushing that bit harder would have resulted in an explosion). Good good.

Thoughts of Trunce or a fell run in the evening soon gave way to pool and a couple of beers with Brendan as was in need of a bit of a mental reset.
