UKOL race 2, Pippingford Park.
Ouch. No hiding place today, if last week didn't prove for me that I am not fit enough to recover for races on successive days, today did.
Legs just not up to the task, on the hills it was a real struggle to keep going. But managed to focus on keeping running well enough to fit in a whole load of errors too.
Could probably have managed to get down to 57 witha very clean run but Alan V won M45 in 54.....and Quentin won the course in 49 (!).
Terrifyingly far behind. But the good news is my foot seemed okay afterwards, so I can at least start the remedial work now.....

Trying to warm up. Grim. Didn't realise quite how bad things were until I actually tried to jog. Then it became clear.
Trying to warm down back to the car. That was a struggle too.
