4 trips in to the hills, 2 with Shaunetto
Just don't ask me to break it down but in 48 hours, 12 munros around 45 miles just under 20,000ft and about 20 litres of water....well it felt like it.

Had a good run today for a couple of hours. Up to the Ox Stones and back to Sheffield. I can't seem to get back into my regular running pattern but today felt good.
You've been busy this week then Ian! How many Munros is that now?

35 to go.........Originally Posted by MickTor
Two runs today, 5.5 miles this morning on trails in the Krkonose mountains, tonight foam roller work and a steady 4.1 miles on trails..
Won the inaugural Chojnik Maraton in Poland, in the Krkonose mountains on Saturday, 2200m ascent, strangely felt great ascending despite living on the flat now, but was attrocious on descents but think I was asking a lot of my adizero's.. legs trashed today..
Am quite pleased with myself for managing to get a 4.5mile run in on Saturday night and a 15 mile run in last night after a full weekend of Open Studios, being on my feet talking constantly each day with no time to eat or escape for the call of nature! A peaceful run round the woods and river last night was bliss!

A 4 mile race, on the flat, this evening, starting from a local pub. My legs are still tired from previous runs too. I feel such a softy after reading some of these posts.
steady run at lunch. 5.75 miles, 7;50-:8 min miles or so.. legs battered
usual group run tonight, .5 mile jog there, 12 k at 6:30 pace, normally step up at the last 3-4 for a had session but it was all I could do to hold 6:30's.. then 1.2 mile slow cool down.. did feel good to hold that pace when shattered, not sure if its a bad thing as not allowed recovery from my marathon saturday, or good to get the body used to running quickish with battered legs..
stunning night again...
But into last 2 weeks hard training now..
Interestingly now have a routine of getting a massage done post any marathon, and for the first time i didn't, and my DOMS is awful.. but this was also my hilliest run for a long time so maybe that was the issue too..
Easy club run tonight, decent bit of banter on the hill and in the pub.
Real easy pace, just pushing on for a couple of climbs and felt ok. Looking forward to the weekend.

Don't forget this was a rest week
I've decided to stick to my own definition of "rest week" and not use someone's else's that involves 12000ft ascent.
Just running easy to get the legs loose and fresh, that's all that's on the radar this week.
