I have run through Hell
Nov06200710:49 a.m.
I am back blogging after a long time away. I have been running and reading all your blogs, so don't have a real reason for not posting anything on my blog.
It is now official, I have discovered Hell and have run through it, in th shape of Hell Runner 2007 that for some unknown reason I entered. I entered whilst sobber, so can't blame the demon drink.
The race, well it is not a race really but more of a run through a course that an evil man devised. It contained sections called 'Hills of Hell' and 'Bog of Doom'. I have never run so many hills and water crossings in a race before, the course was never flat, I was either going up or down hills, dirt tracks, sand dune type things or wading waist deep in mud or water or both. In short just what Hell looks like.
Below is the elavation of the course, its only 10 miles but felt like more.
As you can see it looks more like the profile of the FTSE 100 Stock index.
It was a fantastic event and I really enjoyed it, when I finished.
