Saturday 18th July Oxenhope Fell Race - approx 3.5 miles hilly

A challenging little race through some interesting parts of this picturesque Pennine village. This race also taught me a couple of things.

Always warm-up with a short run so you can hit-the-ground-running. Particularly when the first mile is uphill.

Always do a proper recce so you know what to expect. I'd decided that this course was going to be up-along-then-down. And the biggest hill was first. But it was followed by numerous short climbs before the final descent. Maybe it is better to run hard and then hold on. But some form of pacing is better than none.

Mrs G also got around this one after a month of no-running and major knee pain. A big effort from her.

No pics I'm afraid BB. I'm just not very well organised. One day.
