Pen-y-Pass

So I thought, I tell you what, I know my race is over, but I'm going to get off the pig track.

I'm going to go down to Penny Pass and then find my way back to Lamberis.

Because otherwise, I mean, you know yourself, you'd be having to go back up the mountain against hundreds of runners coming the other way, which would have been a bit of a nightmare.

So I made my way slowly down to Penny Pass and then back to Lamberis.

But essentially, I had broken my ankle quite badly.

I mean, at that point, could you

And, um, it's, it's, um, probably goes up to about 20%.

Um, Hard, well, not really that, maybe 15, 15%, right, hard, hard old claim, and then, and then it's really nice then, you go down the back of the mountain, and it's going to get a bit of a tailwind, for about 15 mile, and then you go into the back of Penny Pass, that's five, five mile, five and a half mile long, and it just goes upright, long and long and hard, but Yeah, just hard climb.

And then down the back of Penny Pass and the Nant Pass, straight down, switchbacks, a wee bit sweaty, wee low walls, and a whale headwind.

The wind would have blew you off the bike, right? So I rode the triathlon bike for the first loop or loop and a half.

And I had a set of triathlon bars on my road bike, which I hadn't got on very long.
