STORM DENNIS is a tw%t
Night recce run for the HM55. Osmotherley to Helmsley. Wasnt too bad as we first set off but by the time we got to Square Corner and accross the tops to Black Hamilton by the head torch light, Storm Dennis had come out to play. You couldn't see further than 3 feet in front. First it was sideways icy rain, then a full on head wind that was difficult to walk in, let alone run. By the time we got to Sutton Bank it had dropped a little but the decision had already been made not to include the White Horse loop. And then weirdly after that it got a little warm. The eye of the storm??? Sheltered. I have never seen so much mud on that section of the route though! Excellent harsh weather training. My face is battered and blotchy but all in all a good night out 😁 how else do people spend a Sat evening??? #hm55 #recce #training #nightrun #hills #mud #hardmoors #hardmoors55 #ultra #ultratraining #mentalstrength #runnerswithink #nutter #mothernature #stormdennis
