Allendale 8

Listed by Jenson
Entrants (3) Club PB SB Pred Time WAVA
Grey Badger New race for me, probably undulating if its at Allendale not many flat bits around there. Was undulating but not too drastic. Nice route on a lovely sunny day. Got a bit too hot for me once or twice. Had a really bad patch between 3 and 4 miles and was nearly sick but pulled myself together and finished strong over the last 3 miles passing a couple of runners and finished 4th and won £20 for first vet. Nicely run event and very well marshalled by very enthusiastic volunteers. Northumberland Fell Runners 49:11 49:11 52:00 49:11 77.61
Jenson Watch time. It was hot. Wasn't that pleased about the hill at the end (understatement - and told the megaphone man he could shove it somewhere - I was joking!), as the realisation dawned that it finished the way the Allendale Challenge starts but 8 min miled the whole race, or quite a bit less when bigger downhill stretches, so got to be fairly pleased. Marshals were, without exception, encouraging and cheerful. In hindsight, route was great. Fair/karaoke (I'm not a fan usually) afterwards in the Market Square was all fab fun too. esk vally fell club 57:52 1:01:39 1:12:00 1:01:39 63.35
