BUCS relay at Hugset. Feeling pretty knackered off so little sleep. Set off in 5th and passed Cambridge and Bristol pretty early then just made sure I didn't miss any controls as the Edinburgh teams set off a fair way ahead. Then saw Fay at number 8 and 2nd became a possibility. Managed to get away at the end when Fay missed the penultimate control. Kind of thankful it wasn't a sprint finish.

Good team atmosphere this weekend and some promising runs from some newer members.

Jog to the start.

BUCS at Wharncliffe. Nice course and enjoyed it but pretty bad run. Lost 1 minute on 4 as too high, 1 minute on 7 as too high and 2.30 minutes on 8 as just fumbled around in the rocks whilst on my way and somehow found the control by luck. Zoe then caught me up and I knackered myself trying to keep up before falling over on the run in. Possibly my last BUCS and definitely the worst result but it was a pretty good field this year.

Run to get some megaphone batteries.

Stressed and in need of fresh air. Runny nose and eyes watering all day which was grim.

Department walk. Such nice weather!

Bottom of left foot very tight. Need to get it sorted before Edale Skyline.

TTDP Urban Nights Fat Cat O. Proper Night O as I forgot to charge my headlamp and it died 1/3 of the way round. Didn't get lost in any multistorey carparks this year but a few dodgy routechoices, especially when there were no streetlamps around and I couldn't read the map. Generally just very slow, can't run fast atm but ah well. Good fun.
