Completed one of the Top 100 climbs in Britain this morning.

Was chuffed to get up it, but also gutted. My left knee played up again and I could hardly pedal with that leg.

Did what I have yet to do before, and had to stop very close to the top, where my mates had waited. So gutted!

Wasn't totally down to my knee, as was already fit to drop, but I would have limped the last bit had the knee not finished me off.

I haven't done great amounts of climbing, but looking to shift focus. Today's 4,000ft of climbing equates to 10% of what I had already done...but that's over 1,200 miles this year. Lol.
