Saturday, High Cup Nick race. Not a PB, 3mins slower than that, probably due to the headwind in the nick, but could be the old post covid crap again. Good preparation for WNTTAC, though.
Sunday, 50m on the bike up to the craven arms and back, heavy legs from high cup nick. I could quite easily have spent the day relaxing, but that's not the racing way.

90 good form squats followed by 30 reps to almost failure on the inclined leg press, 160kg. I'm not going to pass 30 set reps on this, i might need to split into 2 sets say 25,15.

Midweek fartlek tonight, 5k/395', took the mudclaws which was a good job as they were needed. Just about enough traction for the fast sectors.
Black Combe race yesterday, 8.1m/3300', went badly wrong on the descent and squandered a chance to get a good shout in for the descent prize. I've decided it doesn't really suit me, there's too much tourist path. Good prep for WNTTAC, which is getting close now.
