Fell running race 1:43:46 [5] 18.1 km (5:44 / km) +1370m 4:10 / km
shoes: Innov8 212 2017 #3

Long Mynd Valleys Fell Race 2nd
Set off very hard and found Si Bailey and another guy for company on the first part of the climb. By the descent I was solo with Si running off. Followed his line to #2 and despite Abi and Duncan's encouragement he was gone. Made it to #2 not too far ahead of Tom and much to my surprise Si!
Got to #3 fine before making a mistake to #4 with Si and sneaking in with Tom close again behind.
Got a scare on and ran hard to #5 and #6. Got a bit of a gap over the group behind with Si and took my preferred line to #7. Took a fall on the contour and gashed my leg. Just kept plugging away up the hill but Si put a dog in and got a gap again. Dropped down and tried to keep him in sight, the slogged my way up Yearlet again, it doesn't get easier! Saw Jack, Abi and Duncan again whilst I was in pain before hobbling off the top and tried to descend as best as I could.

Pretty pleased! 3/4mins pb over last year in similar conditions even with a nav mistake. Strava is saying 30s on the long track leg to #2 and 30s up Yearlet as the main gains.

Jog about beforehand with Tom. Not much.
Jog after with Tom, Duncan, Abi and Jack then just Jack back up to get some soup. And solo a while later back to the car.

Full length of the prom. Battling a headwind the entire way. Continued on to the Titanic dock before heading back in to town. Somehow there were bits with a headwind the other way?!

Two easier days now I think before Sunday.

Hot date with Pete Bray.
Ran from Salford Quays out to Stretford Meadows on the canal then on to Urmston. Got there a while before the train so ran on towards the next station which thoroughly disorientated me.
Feeling pretty decent and it went pretty quick having a good chat. Got slowed down in slippy mud. Enjoyed.

Changed up my site visits to finish at Horton-in-Riblesdale. Went up the snout and back via the Hull Pot path. Mist ripping across the ridge on the steep bit which was pretty cool. Looped around a bit at the bottom as felt ok.
