"Knowsley Mud Safari!"

There is a saying "it's cross country it's not meant to be easy" and for the seven snow and mud miles of the Northern Cross Country champs at Knowsley Safari Park it has never been more true. After an uphill first half mile of calf deep snow the three lap course turned to ankle deep mud and a time of 72.16 saw me run my slowest race ever, well down the field and  last Harrier to finish.
