Running - Trail race (Cracken Edge) 51:06 [5] 10.31 km (4:58 / km) +404m 4:09 / km
ahr:144 max:164 shoes: Mudclaw G260
A minute faster than last year, which is good but actually not as good as expected since last year was a bit of a disaster.
Ahead of Chris, Allen, Paul S and Tom B though which was excellent and makes me think the run was good. Certainly felt nothing in the quads on the climbs and it was just aerobically that I struggled.
Had forgotten about the large road downhill in the middle of the race where I performed relatively poorly, but other than that, on all the technical stuff was doing well. Good views from the edge. Downhill at the end was along one of those paths in a small gully that's just not quite wide enough so you end up with the occasional step on the grass to either side; could probably have done that bit better. But ok on the rest of the downhills. The track at the start is really steep but there's plenty of room for overtaking later on.
N destroyed everyone else from MaccH by 4:30.
