Despite the time I actually had a good run on 1st race of weekend at St Helens but I lost my dibber in a fern bush on way to 7th (out of ten) controls. I immediately stopped and destroyed bush in my search but couldn't find it after almost 10 minutes. So continued race, punching on map. So after arriving back, Jon and another friend came back out to help me look again, jon found it almost straight away, so then I finished the course - my splits will be good except for the 48 minute one!

amazingly after not even pumping up the tyres, oiling hte chain or doing any maintenance on my poor neglected bike after at least 6 months of non-use, probably more, it worked perfectly when I took it on a ride of the humbug forest loop. Took me a while to pick up the start of the track, but once i did it was great.

waterworks. completely failed to run after work yesterday so made sure of it this morning - don't know why i thought it woudl be possible, i never follow through with it when it's going home time!

run with jon at peter murrell reserve. 4 runs this week - including 3 in a row. gosh. nice to be running but I'd rather be ski-ing.
