Djouce IMRA race.
Summer evenings are great! The legs felt a little heavy from the weekend, but clearly a few weeks of training are having an effect. Managed to run/jog all the way to the top, with stunning views across the mountains for the last km of climb, hazy sunshine, a thin line of fog below Kippure, and Sugarloaf and sea out the other eye. Then the fun began. It's a proper fun descent. I still need a bit of practice, but still overtook a bunch of people, gaining whenever I took the brakes off. There was just one guy on the forest road at the end whose heels I reached, but he had been saving fuel for the final few hundred metres.
Did a good job of keeping the HR around 180.
Close to cramping afterwards, but a nice jog afterwards loosened the legs.

Shane rescued from me from the couch and we headed out Mulllaghcleevaun direction. Wet, windy and cold, but visibility was alright and it turned into a fantastic wee jog with some sprinty bits thrown in, flying down peaty bits and hopping hags.
On satellite view you can see how the terrain changes between kms 6 and 7.
Thankfully Shane did 25km before breakfast, so he wasn't held back too much by me.
PS I am designed for running on soft ground.
