nice to chat with Millipede on the way round - I'm more used to a quiet time of it near the back!
bog-monster got me over the knee, and I thought I was going in never to be seen again :eek:
nice bracing wind especially along the side of White Holme reser - weird to see the water all choppy as it was frozen solid when I recced it!
didn't quite manage last place - 93rd/97 - thought I would struggle to get round in under 2:15, so quite pleased to clock 2:11-something :D
weekend off for me next week - might do some flat tarmac Mile reps :eek:
but soon be THE RELAY
Found this really tough yesterday, not run 12 mile before so just glad I made it. Trainer came off in the bog at the top so had to stop and fish around for it which hasn't pleased me Forerunner at all.
Good race though and thanks to the organisers.
Really enjoyed the race yesterday. I'd done little bits of the course on training runs in the past but never put it all together, I think it might become a regular "tempo" run.
I'm not used to running on the flat!! Legs are sore today. Quite pleased with a time just over 1.40 considering I'd been out and done 12 hilly miles on Saturday as well.
Struggled to warm up afterwards...and I shivered in the car all the way back to Hebden Bridge!
My quads are wrecked today. The walk from the bus station to uni took alot longer than usual!Quote:

I like the way Emmi intorduced me to you. "This is Al, famous for his spelling:rolleyes: (something along those lines anyway)Quote:

At least, that's what they think after they've gone through the initial (and arguably even more awkward stage) of assuming they've misheard you and asking you to repeat what you just said. I speak from experience...
Haha.Quote:

Mudlugger had the balls to come and ask me if i was Al. My knee supports seem to have become a way of identifying me. :D
Yes, it was a good indicator Al, maybe we should all wear pink carnations.. or something... we could all get MMMM tattoos? See what I just did there?Quote:

How come it only shows 100 runners?
"Nick Leigh of Pudsey and Bramley ran away from a quality field, leading exactly one hundred runners back to the Summit Inn."Quote:
