Running - Trail race (Parkrun - Millom) 24:42 [5] 5.07 km (4:52 / km) +43m 4:40 / km
ahr:140 max:155 (injured) shoes: Mudclaw G260
The reputation of Millom for being the slowest parkrun (average time c.35 mins) is entirely justified.
12 PM
Running - Trail (Joss Naylor Leg 0.5 Recce) 2:01:55 [3] 15.04 km (8:06 / km) +631m 6:42 / km
ahr:126 max:146 (injured) shoes: Xtalon 212 (blk/red)
The initial plan was to find someone to run with and recce the whole leg one way; had the weather been nice I'd have run the whole thing out and back... But the weather wasn't nice. It was torrential rain and 65mph wind. Saving grace was that it was warm! But the wind chill was severe. However I was cosy in full waterproofs. Terrain was mainly splashy.
Vis gradually got worse and worse and by the time got to Loadpot didn't really know where I was (only knew it was Loadpot since no other trigs for miles). I'd planned to run most of the ridge before turning around but couldn't face any more running directly into the wind.
Once I'd turned round and had the wind behind me it was significantly easier. 1:25 up, 0:35 down. And that's mainly wind rather than hill.
My calf was fine but now my plantar hurts again, dammit; I cannot catch a break.
