Tough break there Richard, hope it's not too bad.Originally Posted by RichardAThackeray
Well hacked off this afternoon!
A reasonable start, then whilst climbing up through the boulders/woodland onto the top of Shipley Glen, I collected a branch in the face.
No-ones fault, just one of those things, but I lost a contacnt lens, felt like i'd been smacked in the eye, so called it "quits" there & then.
Bugger!!!!!
SO, no 'Barnsley 10K' tomorrow now
Thoroughly enjoyed the race myself, thanks to all the organisers and marshalls. Weather was as good as I can remember in mid Nov, the last two weekends running I've been overheating, sweating buckets, and squinting into bright sunshine.
At 6 miles 650 ft it looks not too bad on paper, but there's not much opportunity to take things easy, I was pretty spent by the end.
