Introduction

After several years of struggling to squeeze in more than a couple of runs each week, and aware that the final years of my athletic prime were passing at a clip, I resolved to run every day for a year. Didn't manage it in 2006 (made it to then end of june), so hopefully the discipline of this blog and the £1 challenge will see me right in 2007.

January 28th - Wooler Cross Country

Faffing with my coat at the back of the field when the hooter sounded, so had to make my way through the throng on the long downhill start. Settled into 5th place, where I stayed for most of the race. Very runnable, with long climbs and descents on paths. Strong blustery wind and very exposed route. Pulled a place back on the last big climb and managed (just) to hold 4th on the horrendous eyeballs-out downhill finish.
