Rest day

Blaise run from Churchill Rd- had been very wet so used tarmac track up the valley rather than mud. Had not really intended to but push on from the start really all the way round

Nice sunny day did the run from the Priory at Portbury. After a couple of days where just keeping running has seemed quite difficult went back to dosing on Ibuprofen and concentrated on pushing on rather than pottering on. The big gates were all open so time is flattering if they had been shut and I had to stop and climb over I guess I would have been 2-3 mins slower maybe more. Still time and performance whilst not exceptional was certainly ok

Only a short warm up -driving rain

Longmoor, very, very wet and raining. Ran in a cagoule. Only made one mistake, no 11, losing over two mins having to come back out and relocate in a very complex set of paths, most of legs just straight, good opportunity to terrain run. Probably a good thing that the navigation was not too tricky. Actually going much slower than Mark on all legs, perhaps he is getting fitter....but also I was plodding. Thoroughly enjoyed the run although I was quite keen to get back into the car and switch the heater on.

BOK run Bradley Stoke, don't know what happened or why but dreadful could not get legs to work at all, so cut it short.......I wonder why? perhaps not used to running in the evening. Anyway very disappointing ....but tomorrow is a new day...bring it on!

C • Just one of those days... 2

Run around Ashton Court and out the back. Still a bit weary from the weekend so a bit slow

Rest day as exhausted.
Pete and Jo went to collect the night controls in what must have been a monsoon.......will be picking up beer bills for rest of the year?
