Thirsk Urban Race UKOL. Course B. First 'proper' urban of the year and sadly I was forced to walk the course as still recovering from the 2 x blandford fly bites I incurred at Bentley Woods. These caused a sever allergic reaction, including histamine rash, hot, swollen lower legs and ankles (cellulitis). 3 x Doctor appointments and time at home on sick leave with 500mg flucloxocillin and piriton 4 x per day eventually kicked in but didn't want to risk a flare up. Wasn't going to walk the whole course but enjoyed it so did! Hopefully will be running at Beverley on Thursday and Ely on 5th April:-)
