Hope that the jog went well Si. You must be loving James with his "I'm just running too many races" niggle ;).

I seem to have managed a whole week without a race. Rather frustrating as there is a fell race here almost every evening but I've got too much work on to get to them. Probably just parkrun again this week.

Stokesy
Ran the middle relay leg of the Man v Horse race yesterday and dragged the team from 22nd and third relay team to 11th and front of the relay pack. Team ended up 9th in the end and won the relay by a good 8 minutes from our B Team so a good return for all. Lacking a couple of gears and a bit of sharpness but very happy overall, how some of you guys can flimg yourselves carefree down the side of a mountain is mental! Awesome race though, something a bit different and definitely one to tick off the bucket list!

How did everyone else get on elsewhere?

Well run against the horse Stokesy.

Was guilty of flinging myself down a few sharp hills if not quite a mountain yesterday at Passing Clouds. Great fun and we just managed to just nick the team prize from the fell boys which is always a plus. 10th overall 1st V50 which wasn't bad in a strong field of crazy fell runners.

I heard there was more silverware and county glory for Jock. Hopefully the blog will be up before the kettle has boiled ;)
