running race 32:04 [5] 6.9 km (4:39 / km) +185m 4:06 / km
shoes: Saucony Peregrine
Tansley Race
took it very steady at the start which was downhill on road and hard tracks (nervous about the hamstring), waited until the longer climb to Upper Lumsdale to move through the guys who'd gone off too fast, by the time we got to the top of the wood a gap had opened up behind, with a bunch 200m ahead, took a kilometre to overtake the next guy and didn't pass the following two until the descent toward the finish, one was fading, the other was too cautious so I went for it and had to keep going
almost two and half minutes faster than last year, though last year conditions were far worse (the stepping stones were flooded)
24th (of 83), 6mins behind winner, 3.5 on first Veteran
