Just got back this morning from my 3 Peaks weekend away. Had a great time. Really enjoyed the race, tried to pace myself a bit better this year and managed a pb so I'm well chuffed.
Got round in just under 4 hr 35 mins and felt reasonably good, obviously knackered and battered towards the end but not as bad as last year. Could have done without the sprint finish 20 yards to go, only to get pipped at the line.
Worst bit for me was probably that last tough hard descent down from Ingleborough as usual, but managed to jog all the way down, other years I've been a sorry sight hobbling and walking most of it.
Overll enjoyed the run more than my other attempts, weather was lovely which helped.
A big thanks to all the marshals, especially the lady at Hill Inn who had my recovery drinks bottle waiting to hand to me, saved me looking through the vast collection of assorted bottles and containers myself.
Hats offf to FenlandFellrunner for doing 3 Peaks then London Marathon the next day, fantastic.
Last year I did London Marathon mid April then 3Ps two weeks later and I still hadn't properly recovered, so credit to you mate, well done.
