Running 13:21 [2] 1.48 mi (9:01 / mi)
Run down the valley to the start
Fell Race 1:38:14 [4] 9.01 mi (10:54 / mi) +1336m 7:28 / mi
Ben Nevis race
L Groin quite sore beforehand but no matter, get on wirrit. Tried my best on the run out but just not quick enough atm to go with the leaders. Hit a good rhythm on the steps, got past Lamby, Carl etc.
No extra gears after the Red Burn, trying but going nowhere fast, Jebby cruised through me and slipped off the back of Si, Dan H, Ross - few lads got closer too. Pretty average climb.
Brice and Lamby went past quickly, then Ted, Mounsey and Elk on the steeper stuff - find it too stressful to dodge walkers, climbing runners, rocks etc all at the same time to really leg it. Got past Dan, then further down Chris Smith on the path.
Karl Gray went past on the road but I responded and overhauled him ,before Dan went past going into the field but I tracked him and mustered a very rare sprint finish to nip 11th.
Not a great performance, my worst British counter but there you go.
Did enough over the season to claim the Britsh Champs individual Silver though, so can't complain. It's not like I've run well at any point but everyine else has been playing silly buggers.

Note
Updated the log wayyy back to Borrowdale. there was some unrecorded orienteering sessions in Stockholm but I cant fucking remember them so deal with it :) most were at m/w16 pace so not wildly strenuous.
