Racing diary: Rodneys Pillar 20/6/12

Rodneys Pillar 20/6/12

AS. Reversed route from last time I did this race, so I don't know whether I was any faster, or, much slower. Felt ok.

Thanks as always to Alastair of Fell Running Pictures for his photos. And the encouragement.

Thanks Matt. I'm more focused than I have been for a long while, so, I hope it's all going to come together at the right time.
