There's a Christmas fell race about 5 minutes from our front door, so I got the bright idea to run the course today, to see if I could do it before entering.
Well, I can, but just. 8km, 3 laps, a brutal climb and a brutal descent. Exhilarating and terrifying. I got lost three times, more on the second lap, confusingly. And my post-run legs don't look too bad with the blood washed off.
