A new personal worst

6 miles of difficulty. A new personal worst, finishing one before last. Too many old people to count overtook me, including Boris Karloff's doppelganger. I don't like racing.

Edit: I just checked the results now they're up online, 4 people finished behind me. So no longer a personal worst, that's about where I always finish. Racing - yeah, bloody love it!!

Lol at Boris Karloff's doppelganger! You started the race so well done.

I've gone off racing too, thought I would want to do lots of short races over the summer but can't motivate myself to face the pain, at least you did!

Pfft, there's no pleasing some people.

I would of been over the moon to have made it around. I bet it was up some scarily BIG muddy bank!

What race was that?

Juls - thanks for the encouragement, I've hardly done any running since Easter so racing was always going to be painful!

Red- there was a long climb up and then a ridiculously steep down.

PO5 - Pilgrim's Cross. It was over at Rawtenstall, one of their midweek series. On the club championship calender.
