Where’d E go?
We started at the rather abandoned old Hollycombe steam adventure park. We headed out East towards Kingsley Green and Fernhurst, then South towards Redford before finally clambering our way back up to Hollycombe for a TRIBE bar and beer upon crossing the line.
E LOVED…
As much as I also complained about it, I loved the mud. It brought out everyone’s inner child as we all skated around with huge grins on our faces. The route was also gorgeous! I cannot wait to take H back for more runs in that area.
E Struggled…
Also with the mud! It did slow me down a considerable amount, it really showed who was better at taking on the technical ground / who was just brave at throwing themselves down slippery hills at speed.
Why this Race…
It’s easy to get to from London and feels like a true escape!
Famous Faces…
Lots of the We Are Runners gang!
Mid run Brainwave…
If I stop fighting the slips it actually makes it easier.
Rocket Fuel…
Sips of water and a few mountain berry Clif Bloks.
Number 1 Fan…
The wonderful Ella who gave us a lift to the run and absolutely smashed it out the park on the middle (13km) option.
