No nationals for me this year - just easing in with club stuff and surrey league.
So opening run was held in 27 degree heat and completely dry ground today. Still despite the boil fest I loved it. 3.9 miles around Richmond Park. Its a handicap and I am non scoring but still managed to finish second across the line and had no one pass me (whoop), improved my wava from the previous outing but not the same course. I also earned a silver medal for being second fastest woman over the course
A good second bash at XC despite the most unXC like conditions! My next one is the end of Sept I think. Looking forward to some mud!

The first race of the Frostbite series was held in 27 degree Celcius heat last year. September XC races can be odd. You had a good run today, Curly!

First race for me Saturday. If this rain carries on I'm guessing it may be a bit damp underfoot!

I had promised to do some training for this year's cross country season. I've done none. The first one is going to hurt.

I've not trained (running anyway) all summer, but I don't think I can resist the XC season. The first league match is 20th October. If I can get a month of decent training in, that might give me the platform to train through the winter and try and be in reasonable shape by the time the (Scottish) Nationals come round in Feb.
