Fat Man Runs First '6' miler in a while and for saying it was country I felt pretty strong. Was feeling pretty good at three miles and had overtaken a fair few runners, largely, I think because I'm relatively strong goging up hill. I managed to put some space between me and the four or five I had overtaken only to go arse over tit in the stream. When I resurfaced I was wet and cold from head to toe and my Garmin had fallen to bits and my shoes had come undone, by the time I had sorted everything out those pesky runners had passed me again! Spent the last two miles catching them up and then passing another couple on the final climb. I think if I hadn't had the 'stream' problems I would have been another two minutes quicker. Overall really pleased. Unaffiliated 45:50 55:55 45.69
Firestarter Cold start - soon warmed up though, Undulating course with a run through a thigh deep brook after about 2 miles - nice!!?! - Muddy throughout had to stop to re-fit my shoe twice. Last hill climb before the finish like a Paddy field shin deep in mud every time you planted your foot. Pleased enough with time though. Hermitage Harriers RC 37:15 40:43 45:18 60.25
