Event: Northern Championships (UKOL)
 

Northern Champs, Wass Forest.
M50L 6.8km 435m (!)
This was tough. I had a pretty much clean run apart from #5. I climbed out of #4 to run on the flat above the crags. As I dropped back down I misread the marsh and windblow and stopped short. I turned south before eventually finding it further north. There didn't seem to be much of a reentrant to me. Approx 2 mins binned.
I caught Duncan Harris (4 mins) at #10 and we were together for the rest of the race. This undoubtedly helped him but also helped me keep my pace up.
Pleasing to retain my trophy but it will be harder next year against Quentin.

Note: L Achilles getting sore again late on in the race. Ice once home.

Enforced warm up to the distant start and back (at a crawl) from the remote finish.

Golf. Saturday (pairs) comp (with Richard). Team score of 71 nett. Pretty average.

Note. Feeling golfed out. Maybe limit myself to two rounds a week?

Golf with Neil. Lost by 2 holes on matchplay (35 Stableford points). Respectable after being 4 down after 4 holes.

Into Huddersfield for dentist and back.

Dead Edge End and back from Holme Moss. Glorious day but still pretty wet underfoot.

Golf. Winter(!) box league. Won 2 and 1. Shorts and T shirt. 25 degrees.

Garage circuits.

Golf. Pro's mid week comp. 36 Stableford points (18/18).

Yateholme circuit. Not pushing it and no injury issues :)
