Lake District weekend, Eryri scrambles, MTB Clwydian killer loop, Race the Train, Pie and Peas race

A sprained knee (stag night injury sustained in Newquay!) put me out of the Snowdon race. But a gradual recovery and a weekend in the Lakes (including the Mosedale horseshoe with Wistow Crags scramble, and the long Buttermere round over all the peaks) saw me regain some fitness. Did the superb Race the Train in mid Wales in appalling but fun conditions - about 1:54, missing the train by 5 mins or so. Also the multi-terrain Pie and Peas near Winsford Cheshire, the Capenhurst 5k (18:33) and the Moel Famau fell race yesterday. Also enjoyed Main Gully, an easy scramble, on Glyder Fach last Saturday - and the Llechog ridge in the rain the week before that. Mountain biking also coming along, a few good circuits of the Clwydians including the 40km, 1000m+ ascent killer loop.
