Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Tomorrow I seem to have a 15k trail run.

I vaguely recall having signed up for it, but nonetheless it comes as a bit of a surprise.

I suspect it will be cold and rather muddy (as muddy as a country made almost entirely of sand can get, at least). Excellent :D

You’ll get in trouble from the committee if you turn up to hit fluffy yellow bastards wearing that.

Good point about throwing things at a wall.

I begin to suspect that having beer and snacks for dinner (while watching the rugby, which was good), not sleeping, and not taking any drinks or gels with me may not have been the best plan, but nonetheless I came in well under the two hours I feared I'd take (1:42 by the event timing, I managed to forget my sportsing watch in Brussels). The first 10k in particular were lovely.

Wyre Forest go tri duathlon

2.5km 6km(more like 7) 2.5km

Wyre Forest is tough

Considering all the running my run legs were dire but 5th in after a controlled descent and steady climb.

Into bike and stunned to see 2 of first 3 out on CX bikes.(concerned) left in 4th. Caught first CX bike quickly and the chap in 2nd on an mtb not much later and then set off after the leader. I caught him in the muddiest bit but failed to get a gap. Sat up and let him pass me on a false flat so I avoided giving him any more help. First part of climb I rode next to him and said advantage you on the cx: bike(fire trail 1.5mile climb). He just wheezed so I took my chance and kicked hard to get a gap. It work and I was well clear in t2.

Ran solidly again but at the bottom of the long descent I could hear him coming. He must have nailed the descent bit style. With the climbs to come and him besting me on the first run I felt lime the hare and it seemed like time but as the road headed up I was too strong for him and help on for a good win.

I probably shouldn't be at these but I needed an off-road effort and frankly at least 6 of us had done this before .

There was no cruising.2nd run HR was 172 avg which is zone 5!!!
