racing (DNF) 56:00 [4]
Frustrating day at Run for the Toad. Bad-ankle calf had been stiff and sore during training runs this week, but I hadn't thought anything of it. First few km's into the trail it started to seize - I just assumed it was just going to be a long and unpleasant race, but by the time I got just to beyond the first lap, I was showing a noticable limp. Time to call it - no sense straining anything with only a month to go before ARWC. Looks like I'll be doing a lot of riding and stupid spinning for the month of October (probably a good thing anyway, as I've barely been in the saddle all year).
Got to see Tiny, M&M and WandAR at the start - hope they had better race than I did. Great day for a trail run!
