Just after lunch time today Myself, Donn and Ken OD headed off on what started out on a nice trail run up into the mountains by Crosshaven "we'll be back just outside the hour". Quite quickly things became interesting as the fog set upon us once we got off the first 3km road of our run, as we ascended the hill visibility became catastrophic.
Soon Donn began taking bearings and that's when it really got interesting as we had no features and 0 visibility. After running for approx 1Km the wrong way we back tracked and came down what could only be described as an amazing farm track down into a valley where we then realized we were on the wrong side of the Mountain, as light began to fade the chaffing set itself upon poor Kens (Area) and with 10km of road to get us back to the van, i doubt he was to happy. However he soldiered on and after what could only be described as an Interesting and Varied trail run we made it back 3:30mins later.
Training and race progress throughout 2014 as I move away from Junior Cross Country and up to Seniors in Gravity Enduro
