Dales Weekend Malham.
I was expecting Malham to be nicer underfoot than Attermire. However I was thinking of Kilnsey and Arncliffe. The visible pave was OK, but the grassy-tussocky pave was not and I spent not enough time looking at my map and shanked a few legs. Messed up in the middle of the long leg in a dead-end of walls, easily caught by both Stevens brothers, they pulled away but good tough-it-out practise to close them down and at least beat them into the finish after nearly being fully dropped. When I took a long)ish_ bearing it seemed to be working well.
Positives to take from the weekend, but a bit disappointed with how tired I felt today. Mainly putting lack of recovery down to not sleeping as long as ideal this week, as well as general travelling. Had planned on getting some hills in from Kettlewell way, but got there and just turned for home - this endurance takes a little bit of time to build.
