Warm up and run back

NGOC local event at Bixslade. A relatively simple course and forest -small time loss at 5 misread contours and hence route. No 6 missed track junction and had to cross fairly grotty wood and No 7 too far right.
Breathing not great and lack of fitness exposed. Good race particularly in second half trying to hold of NGOC girl Caroline Craig.

Another week full of a cold -how long can this go! Foot still not right and still not on top at work. So another week without running. Just relief that work is over for a couple of weeks a chance to recuperate, sleep and catch up on normality which should involve running

Compassport cup race at Long Valley- good well organised race in very good wood. Good race but not good runner. Cold got much worse overnight and I should not have run. Anyway dosed up and ran but poorly both physical and lack of concentration. Although it seems to be one thing after another there will be good days ahead.
A quite remarkable BOK turn out and win. Well done all
