Running 33:45 [3] 4.54 mi (7:26 / mi) +102m 6:57 / mi

'easy' run with Nicholas - he should do more of my 'easy' runs as he'll get quicker quickly! (ok, so he started up school road a bit too fast and I kept the pace up)
To Sandygate via crosspool, then down to Ranmoor, along to Broomhill (pushed the pace here. Well, I did...) then back via Crookesmore road.
Felt OK as had to keep someone going.

Tigers todger, 1st f.
didn't feel like racing so went fully prepared just to spectate - even took work with me...then suddenly somehow i seemed to have paid and was on the line...so i had to run. set off fast with J, surprisingly i felt normal again ie going at an ok pace without too much effort - made sure i didnt go fast enough to get properly out of breath, or run into any trees

Fell Race 2:57:44 [4] 14.0 mi (12:42 / mi) +1524m 9:29 / mi

stuc a'croin, british champs. 2nd u23. 12th f.
it wasn't at all fun in fact it was miserable, felt rubbish from the start.
got big headache after 2 miles which lasted all 12 more miles, got cramp in both feet so kept slipping steeply downhill. at halfway a marshall gave me a snickers which i ate hoping i'd suddenly feel great but was sick a mile later, after getting really worried about massive pains right across my ribs, indigestion? fell into a bog and as i got up went really dizzy and ran straight into a fir tree which made the head hurt more, so sat down for a bit then when i got up got cramp in both hips.
it wasnt the distance that was the problem just had a really off day and everything that could go wrong went wrong

ceilidhing 10:00 [3]

only me and lucy managed this out of pretty much all the fell runners. she was the man!

Warm up/down 15:00 [1]
