Poor Suzy feet. Sounds like your doing really well though with all your XC recently. Do Beachy Head marathon with us next year, you know you want to

I really enjoyed the Pirie 10 today! Real classic XC, very low key no fuss race set in lovely countryside. I was anxious about the 45 minute cut off for the first 5 miles as it had been tipping down with rain yesterday and although it was decidedly boggy in places made it through just in time. I think I need to lost a good 1 stone to look like the whippets nearer the front of the pack though!

windy wet and muddy today and 13th place. My best ever finish. It was a day for the strong rather than the fast today.

just a question - def. need to get some spikes. the innov8's were fine but lost grip where it was *really* muddy...

how have people found the sizing's of the nike waffles... spot on/small/big compared to normal shoe size.... was going to get a pair off the web as there's some good deals about.... usually run in asics so can't use the sizing from them.... ta xx

My highest ever finish at a cross country race today - was 2nd and just outsprinted to the line. What a mudfest though (Culham Park)! I haven't run that slowly in a race since my first ever 5k!!
