A slightly disappointing 6th. I got to the top of the second hill and my legs wouldn't go on the flat. It is my longest run duration wise since the summer in the Alps and there we were having photograph stops. If I were to do it again it would involve some proper hill training and not running with a rucksack.
5:34 is a very tidy xc pace. roll on the Vets. where is that?

That's a seriously peaky profile, excellent effort. Where did you come?
Big contrast for me yesterday, the Kent County Vets' XC champs was mainly round a flat grassy field in Dartford, with the odd very sharp but very short slope. Going good to firm, so I logged one of my quicker XC paces, 5:34/m for 5.5 miles. We managed to defend our team title for the V40 race (4 to score) and I went one place better than last year by coming third. A pleasing return to something like my best fitness, so I'm looking forward to next week's Southern Counties Vets' XC, although the competition will be a bit stiffer there.
