X Talon's do the job!
On the 23rd January I took part in the first of the G3 series fell races. They are all around 10km long and take place out the back of Guildford, Surrey from Newlands Corner down and then up to St Martha's church (and then down and then up and then down and then up etc etc).

You don't get many fell races around the south so these three races are always well attended. They are also great fun and ensure that you stay right off the roads and they are suitably hilly. Each race has a slightly different route. The first one is possibly the flattest ....the next one (15 Feb) is not...
Anyway - I ran well and hard and was pleased to finish first lady and in the top 10 overall (6th). It was muddy and slippy and so fell shoes were the way to go and I wasn't the only one in Inov8's which was great to see.
So - looking forward to next Saturday - hopefully there won't be too much snow on the ground although the weather forecast is certainly for a cold week...even down south! Bring it on!
