Kinder Trog
Thought I'd give this one a go and persuaded Henry to do it as a post Covid tester. Turns out it lingers a bit longer than expected and he needs more time to get energy levels back up.
The run was OK but didn't really enjoy the road, trail and flagstones, especially into the head wind along Kinder.
Some semblance of fitness but just lacking in strentgth to maintain any sort of pace.
Managed to run pretty much all of it, just slower than I wanted and lost a hand full of places after Kinder low.
Could've done with a recce as the OS 1:25 didn't lend well to the micro nav bits near the end. Consequently lost 5 minutes headscratching and waiting for others.
Somewhere just below mid table is slightly depressing but a recce and a bit better build up would've helped.
Had 5x haribo tangtastic I found in a bag +1x gel. left a bit late at around 12 mile in.
