Coniston

Coniston fell race - 9miles / 3380ft
27th place - 1hr 28mins 18secs

Started off well up Mauldry Bank but wilted when the real running started on the flanks of Wetherlam. Jackie Lee cruised past, no repeats of Wednesday then, soon to be followed by the train led by Stuart Shuttleworth. He clearly knows his way around this as he sneaked his way up to 5th by the finish.
Valiantly tried to keep Colin V in view as I knew he would have a decent line off the Old Man as it proved to be.
Good craic afterwards in the last of the afternoon rays at the Sun.
Ample pints of Bluebird clearly didn't slow Lloyd down in Wales though!
