Rivington 10mile Challenge

Image
This run was a new run by Mad Bull Events   I'd done a couple of these and enjoyed them. Trail runs and local. I booked this one flippantly as I usually do. "A run up Rivington. I've run around there a few times, it's not a bad run :)" I'd done a little hill training recently with my friend in preparation for the Canalathon and was sure I'd be fine. So fine in fact that I was doing a 5 mile road run the day before! The 5 mile which turned into 7 & a half mile due to a wrong turn, on a very warm day -_- My friend had entered, but due to an injury had to pull out. I'd be OK though, I run alone all the time! but I was nervous of the location and the distance and almost pulled out. Almost .

I had been on annual leave and after a full week [almost] of wind and rain Sunday was finally mild and looked pleasant enough for a walk.  I asked my hub if he fancied a walk with the dog and a butty. He didn't really but said that he did! We made butties, got some water and rounded up the dog and off we went. I opted to park where I thought would be nearer to where I thought the Spitlers Edge started, in a car park at the foot of a run I do regular. I swapped to trainers that I use for walking in and as we set off on our walk and barely even out of the car park, I somehow managed to turn my ankle in a pot hole. I heard a pop and the pain was immense, I gritted my teeth and waited for it to pass "Have you hurt yourself?" asked my hub, I replied "no" and limped off.  I was finding the elusive [to m...
