cake muncher Finished in 59th place. Good conditions for a fast run but I wasn't firing on all cylinders today. 39 seconds and 10 places down on last year.

Boab This was my first hill run, and it feckin hurt!!!! I was done in after about 300 meters. Start was through boggy ground covered in reeds, it was almost like the hurdles, then there was the first ascent. It was hands on knees job for most of the climbs for me, my legs were knackered...lungs were ok throughout, didn't put them under too much pressure at all, but I have absolutely no strength left in my legs!!! Made a lot of places on the descents, but lost them again on the ascents, by the time we got the the Howe my thighs were wasted and when we started the last ascent to Carnethy I thought my calfs were going to explode! This is tough running, anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they are talking about. I find XC difficult, this was just pure evil!!!! Give me a flat road race anyday of the week, but will I do a hill race again.........right now NO, ask me tomorrow!

Tasis Lass this was a good race for me beat my previous time of 1:57:04 so well pleased, this is definately a tough 6 miles but the weather was perfect and conditions on the hill were ideal.
