sorry, I made a mistake. In the video I said that it's the 3rd counter race in the English Championship, but it is the 4th!

I was unable to run this race due to injury so your video has given me some of the race flavour I missed. 😊

[@OlgasBritishFells]

Oh I hope you recover from your injury soon, Bryan. I am glad you managed to see some action from the video.

I am so envious! I currently have a knee injury - lateral collateral ligament [I fell off a gate and bent my knee sideways], and I'm off running for a year. Thanks for posting this, it's a real tonic. Maybe next year... just, maybe.

[@OlgasBritishFells]

Oh noo, what bad luck. I hope it heals eventually.
