Great Hucklow fell race - felt nackered before the start but set off well - cycling seems to have improved my uphill - was 2nd woman for most of the race however when we went into the undulating valley my legs were rubbish and I lost a place to a totley runner!
I stayed close behind her until the last climb where I struggled and almost got caught by another woman - flew down the hill to the finish gaining a distance between me and 4th and came in 3rd - a min down on the totley runner.
Think my legs were a bit confused about running - I'd not made them do it for a while...

Event: Pen y Fan and the fantastically named Fan y Big fell Race weekend.
 

Developed headache yesterday afternoon and it hadn't gone this morning - rest day! and rest day tomorrow as I have a 14hr shift!
Bring on sunday and my 1st fell race(or even fell run) for over a month!

The circuits I did while in Glasgow - but this time in Sheffield

To/From eccy woods

Course round Eccy - went ok, remembered after a couple to take it slower so I didn't overrun everything! Number 5 was interesting...not as on the map - after this got head sorted and went smoothly for the rest of the course - just steady
only crashed a couple of times going to 1 and 2 due to cleats - just need a bit of practice on how I'm going to use em...

Trains - picked diff route choices to see how they went - added a bit of a race element to it..
