Bishop Hill Sun 2nd March

1st of this years 4 from 6 SHR Championship, I ran it in 05 when it was last used as one of the counting races. Starts and finishes crossing a ditch with a 20 minute climb and 7 minute descent in between.

Big field meant a bit of elbows out to keep your place on the narrow path zig zagging up, a mixture of jog and walk in time with the gradient and whoever tried to pass. Being a short race pushed on and kept with a few slightly faster runners on the way up and most of the way down apart from the last steep section where I descended like a mouse.

Pleased to finished with a pb ascent & descent by about a minute overall and felt as if I could have gone quicker.
