Then down foxes tarn where Ibumped into my mum. Was alright for the first 90mins but then really really struggled up Scafell. The second 900m climb of the day really took it out of me in the sun.

Also got told off by a helicopter rescue crew for running too close to the helicopter as it was trying to land to rescue someone who appeared to have collapsed in the heat

AIRE Kilnsey North Event Black 12.94km (5:55mins/km)
Won XD but more importantly beat Josh. Fairly similar length/climb to last weekend, though not as technical so was a lot cleaner. Didn't feel as good as last week either, never felt as if I was gunning it whilst last week it felt like I was running hard most of the way. Even so was still tired towards the end.

Aire Town event Settle and Giggleswick A Men's Open 11.26km (4.53mins/km)
Foot hasn't been great recently running on hard surfaces so decided to just take it easyish and focus on making sure I took good lines. Really nice area two interesting sections separated by a bit of a slog through the centre. Think my routes were generally good, Carl beat me by about 4mins which is a little dissapointing though not unexpected after Tuesdays dissapointing session.

Had a pretty good race died a bit at the start but managed to get it together a bit and had a good second half. Lost about 30s on 10, was about 3mins down on John and Ralph on the same course which I'm pretty pleased at and would've beaten Duncan again if he hadn't tried to cheat. Lewis beat me again by about 20s.

Had a pretty good run overall, caught up my 3min man at 14. But dropped about 90secs on the two controls afterwards. Caught him again at 19, and was going well would have probably been up with Pete Bray's time but binned about 3mins on the last two controls in the woods. Pretty pleased all the same, 30s down on Lewis. A long way behind Crickmore
