There is a well known saying that what goes up, must come down.
It?s often what keeps me going.
This weekend though I took part in a race that went against all of this logic.
Altitude is one thing but the ascent involved was another thing entirely.
The UK is relatively flat and where I?m based is even flatter.
Cheshire has precisely zero hills, a recipe that doesn?t bode well for hill training.
At one stage we had to descend an iron stair/ladder set that reduced me to tears.
?Allez, allez, allez!?
It was one of the more surreal moments of this year, that?s for sure.
Go, go!?
There was no heroic mad dash for the line ?
And as for the relevance to this blog?
Well I actually ran with my camera on me capturing a couple of moments along the way.
Yes it was long, yes it was painful but would I do it again?
Things were getting hard for me around here
Finished and finally able to stand up again!
