Don’t think, get out the door

I pushed the pace on the climbs of the Lake District, but didn't dig too deep, the effort felt sustainable. I was sweating heavily in the heat. It was a very warm weekend, a factor that had influenced my kit choice.

I suspect this sweating led to lowered salt levels late in the day and into the next day. Despite drinking plenty I wasn't retaining water, and had some mild stomach cramping, which is usually an indicator of dehydration for me. I didn't eat enough of my salty snacks (toasted corn, pretzels) on day one, and got things back on track in day two.

I stopped a bit earlier than planned, I'd intended to keep moving until at least 23:00, but stopped around 22:00. I was happy to have gotten through the Lakes in one day. I was feeling strong. Better than I'd felt in the morning even, now that my muscles were warm and loosened up. It did feel wrong to be feeling good, aren't FKT's about pushing limits. But my rule of thumb is if you pace well you should feel really good in the first third of the effort.
