Trouble is I've already lost a lot of what fitness I had and don't want to become a couch potatoe.
should I suffer the soreness and get back to it ?
If not, then what can I do to keep ticking over, bearing in mind I do not have a bike, don't use a gym and don't swim

Was going ok up to the summit at Fairfield on Sat but things fell apart on the subsequent rocky descent where I was very much in the Bradley Wiggins category! Could always go back up Fairfield, perhaps from Dunmail Raise which is a shorter trip up, and go over the descent again. Are there any more accessible rocky descents that are worth practising on? ]]> Training JohnH http://forum.fellrunner.org.uk/showthread.php?19417-Practising-rocky-descents http://forum.fellrunner.org.uk/showthread.php?19317-hill-reps-or-backtoback-races&goto=newpost Sun, 21 Apr 2013 14:28:33 GMT Hi - After a bit of advice here.

Because I live in Derbyshire and love doing races (of which there are approx. 70 in the general area over the course of a year) I largely rely on doing back-to-back races to keep fit and hopefully develop. Ideally I'd like to do regular hill reps but it's very hard to find time in between doing races, recovering from doing races and unavoidable time consuming crap like having to work for a living. I have been advised that the number of hills I run (run?) should cover it, but what's the consensus? - hill reps or back-to-back races? I'd welcome any feedback. Thanks WT (PS - wasn't that wind on Kinder Downfall a bastard - it's all I could do to keep standing up at times, let alone keep moving forward) ]]> Training Wirksworth Tortoise http://forum.fellrunner.org.uk/showthread.php?19317-hill-reps-or-backtoback-races
