By hell that was cold. Rain I can handle, but hailstones are a fucking menace.
21km 2hrs 07minutes.
Nice solid run. Took a while to warm up, but once I did, I really hit a good stride and kept to it. First up was an out and back look through fairly flat grazing country, cows were reasonably happy to see me. Felt a bit tense for the first 5k but loosened up nicely for the second... despite getting peppered with chunks of ice from above from about k7 to k9. Next six was a hill climb that really gave the legs something to think about. Then the last five was my trusty rail-trail run from out the back of Warburton into home.
Mars Bar at the end tasted pretty damn fine.
