Running 1:01:42 [2] 10.76 km (5:44 / km) +274m 5:05 / km
Out to support Mike on his Lakeland 100. Couldn't find the checkpoint at Chapel Stile for a while so actually missed him going through. Eventually found it and asked the marshals if Mike had gone through, turns out he just went through 5 mins ago, speedy bastard! So put a bit of a pace on up some stony trails and soon enough saw him still running (90 miles in) just ahead of me. Jogged with him for about 2 miles giving him some awfully shite chat to keep his mind off things. Only went and won it by nearly 45 mins in front of an inov8 guy!

Up to Old Man from the pub and then back down to watch big Mikey J start the Lakeland 100. Absolute huge support in Coniston, so many supporters!

Running 33:00 [4] 6.18 km (5:20 / km) +420m 3:59 / km
Rydal Round Fell Race (Ambleside Sports)
Course shortened to 'bad weather' aka a bit of drizzle. So was just up nab scar and back, quite a few big dogs like Carl Bell, Rhys and Jack Wood there today so they flew up once the gradients started steepening. Think I settled for something like 8th but not sure. Not a good run but not a bad run. Probably could have had two lads at the end but just wasn't in the mood for gutting myself and was feeling a bit flat along the track at the end. Enjoyed it though and felt reasonably okay climbing but took a bit of a tumble and lost my rhythm near the top.
Getting a bit bored of just being average at climbing now. Really want to bridge the gap to the top senior guys. Think I just need more time in the hills to develop some gurthy quad muscles.
Not sure about the time, will have to see when results comes out.

Project Woomey continues. Right quad really tight/tired to start with but eased up nicely. Continuing the cycling because i'm quite enjoying and I'm feeling like its benefiting my fitness. Won't be doing quite as much as last week though! Debuted the Oakelys. People looked at me and thought I was actually good at cycling.
