slept:6.0 shoes: Mudclaw 300 'Classic' green

Sedbergh Hills, 7th. (~15mins slower than when it was a champs)

Managed to limit myself to 5.5 pints last night, and none after 10 (Adam had 3 infront of him at last orders), so felt OK once I'd been to the toilet several times. Cruised around wearing in a new pair of shoes (lost a minute re-lacing them). A group including Dave Lund and Ralph Skrimshire were about a minute ahead on the bumpy leg from 3 to 4 and although I tried a bit more on some of the climbs legs weren't having it. Picked a few stragglers off on the last downhill when I got into a comfy cruise mode.

Lovely day to be on the fells, I do like this race.

Running - Trail long 3:56:17 [2] 28.19 km (8:23 / km) +2350m 5:55 / km
slept:6.0 shoes: Mudclaw 300 B/R

Perry's Leg 2 with Jebby, Steve Angus, Matt Reedy and Buzzer, intercepted by Malley. Foul weather (well perfect for an OMM maybe) over the Helvellyn ridge etc, so much so that we only passed one other person.

Shoes pretty much had it, stitching on the rand coming undone and grip decreasing rapidly.

XC rabble-rousing email from Cap'n Thumper ahead of the Autumn. Really looking forward to getting my teeth into the back end of the coming XC season...

...but, first things first. As I up my weekly ascent towards and past the 3000m mark, I imagine I'll be spending quite a bit of time on Blacka over the next couple of months. Went to check out a bit of the Exterminator course, thought I ended up at the wrong point but turns out that after reaching the road we do hack through a shitty bit.

Murky and blustery out.

Eccles Pike. 2nd to Matt but 1min or so behind. 30s slower than last year.

Still a great fun race if lacking the head-to-heads I've had before. Tom Wild took it on before Matt pulled out a big lead once onto the climbs. As last year I put in a big effort at the bottom of the steeper climb to the summit to catch and pass Tom. He gained a little around the summit but I soon pulled away but was still close enough to keep me fairly honest.

Drizzly weather but good for running if a bit slippery. Fair run considering Borrowdale legs.

Win hill and the breasts with a pair of tits. Nice evening if a bit breezy, felt I was moving OK and, whilst comfortable, a bit harder than I'd like this to feel, but the long road to a small tent is just beginning. Good catch-up on the summer's shenanigans. Followed by Pie and peas - my 3rd pub tea in 3 days.

Blood test results show nothing wrong with me so it was all my head.
