Whitbarrow Level B. Late, late night at Charmians' 50th plus early morning plus making a mistake at #1 and then falling over and gashing my right hand. After licking the blood away for a couple of minutes decided the kids would probably tell me to "man up" so trundled off up the slope towards #2. Pete Haines passed me and gradually pulled away and was running with Graham Watson for a bit. Then took alternate route into limestone forest, got stuck, Jon Carberry caught me and ran with him until near the end when I pulled aay a bit. Just didn't ant to be there!
Lane Ends, Bigland, Haverthwaite Heights loop. Warm day - just short sleeve top.
Terrain a little firmer. Stopped and talked to Bob n Mary after 4mins.
Very sore right hip afterwards.
Old Hall Lane, Woodland, Lowick, Torver, Coniston, Brantwood, Lowick, Broughton Beck, Ulverston. Met up with Paul and Dave from Broughton Beck after Brantwood - good chatting on way back into headwind.
Tuesday old gits. Lindsey Bayles came along and seemed fine for loop. Ran with her and Dave Nield for most of it. Drizzly day.

Out with Florrie & Andrew Brockbank from Lancastrian pub up long bridlepath to Birkrigg. Out and back.Still drizzly and path very muddy but the two of them coped well slipping around. Both talking whilst running at the end!
