Going to have a go at the Cross Country Series starting at Cockermouth 08th Oct 2011, having to get up early off nights for this one. Start time of 1310 hrs. Hoping to do the full series this time after only managing two last year through injury.

The Great Cumbrian Run 2011
Sunday 02 October 2011 a fortnight after my Ironman i decided to enter the Cumbrian Run, a nice steady run but found my legs were heavy managed to get round in a time of 1: 39: 29 so i was well pleased. Hope to get my time down to 1: 29 : something in 2012, if i manage this target for a half marathon i will be setting another one. I spent 20 years or so inactive where i was a heavy smoker, now just seeing how far i can go. My Personal best time of 1 : 26 : something on the old Cumbrian Run route Brampton to Carlisle some 25 years ago, i took this race at short notice under the name of Tony Bell who had to pull out. 2012 should be an interesting year.

The Big day
This Sunday, Henley-on-Thames. We are now down to three because of a stupid Cat deciding to cross the road at a bad time and getting in the wheel of Richards Bike. Ending in trip to hospital, time off work and missing the Iron man.
