A Damp run

Under Deb's guidance, I took part in my first ever trail race today - as an ex-sprinter, I always tend to set off too fast in any race over 400m. So to have the coaching was a huge benefit.

Started at the back of the line up (as you are timed by an ankle strap rather like an AZBO). The run was very muddy in places, and it poured for the duration. Had a fabulous time, completed the 10K in 1hr 2 min, coming 157th of 470, and even had enough in the tank for a sprint finish.

Already looking forward to the next one.
