"Kinder Downfall"





After an easy week of running (forgetting about the 15 x 1 minute speed work at Brereton Heath!) I made a first effort at the Kinder Downfall fell race. Luckily the weather held and the map and compass weren't needed for the nine plus miles up and over Kinder Scout. Despite working hard (and sightseeing!) it still took 2hrs 2 minutes which is less than impressive and I slipped from first to third in the club fell handicap champs!

The photos show a view from Kinder Downfall back towards the reservoir and  one taken by a passing club colleague out jogging round the course which shows me BEFORE the 2,000ft climb up onto the Kinder plateau!

Week 17. Weekly mileage 25. Annual mileage 367. Sessions 76. races 9.
