Running - Fell 3:50:00 [4] 20.0 km (11:30 / km) +1600m 8:13 / km
(sick) shoes: Inov8 - Bare-Grip 200
BG attempt.
Had a cold but decided to give it a go.
Got to Skiddaw on 22.5 schedule but was pushing quite hard. Gained a couple of minutes across to Great Calva because of a good descent off Skiddaw, but I was finding it tough going up. Descent of GC wasn't as easy as expected and I was tired on the run across to the Caldew. Trying really hard on the ascent of Mungrisdale but going nowhere. I knew at this point that going the whole way was out of the question and I would probably struggle to get to Dunmail. By the time I made it up Blencathra I'd lost 10 minutes and was feeling like crap. I was still within 23.5 hour schedule at Threlkeld but there was no way I was going on.
The weather was almost perfect, so it's rather disappointing to have to pull out.
I feel pretty terrible just sitting here and typing so another 20 hours of running would've been hell.
Another time maybe.

LOC sprint, Rawfold Woods.
All over the place, not following my position on the map at all. Lots of errors. Shoes falling apart so my feet were sliding about all over in them.
Never really got going but I only went out for a wee leg stretch.
Just added up all the main errors and easily lost 3 minutes. Lost more from bad route choices and hesitation. 25 minutes was do-able at an easy pace.
