Southern XC this weekend. Due to England Athletics being way too fast and efficient I can't do it. I had planned on leaving Kent after the last local x country race but have ended up being kicked out at the start of this week! So i'm now registered at a club, Ealing SOuthall and Middlesex, that I don't have entry for the Southerns, Nationals or final Surrey League of the season. Hey ho. So i might do a parkrun tomorrow.
It also means that my final race as a Kent AC member saw me fall over twice in the final 800m. I was coming down the hill in the Box Hill fell race and skidded on the mud about half way down then tripped over a tree root about 5m from the line. I ended the race bleeding from the knee, thigh, elbow, hand and chest. Good times.
The BOx Hill fell race has also knocked my training this week as I have had quad DOMS. Not ideal preparation for Chichester 10k next week.
Sounds messy both administratively & physically! Enjoy the rest & good luck with new club.
No xc Northerns for me as club doesn't affiliate. Regardless, I've got lurgy again, felt great yesterday morning on a short slow run, today wiped out and sneezing lots.
