Just a short session in the gym. 10k on the bike and 5k on the treadmill with a few minutes on the stairmaster whilst waiting for a treadmill.

Not quite running.
Did 30 seriously rapid lengths of breathstroke.....over-took everyone in the pool...even got competative and had to over-take a woman doing front crawl.
Pushed myself a little too hard and felt a little ill afterwards.
5 mile off road to work, 5 mile off road home sooner than i thought.
Then a couple of miles with CVFR junoirs
Hills and Guinness!
Fox & Hounds Fell race last night (8.9m 1550ft climb)
A good test only seven weeks after walking the dog was painful. Set off at around 70% but was giving it everything at the finish. (Former) injuries held up fine, with no after effects this morning
Frequent but moderate workouts on a consistent basis are the key to success
Well, since i decided to go for a run...i decided to make the most of it and did 9 miles.
Knees went as soon as i left the door but 5 minutes later i felt amazing and plodded on.
This rain we've been having has really loosened up all the ground and it was like a cross country race though all the fields.
Legs started to go knackered around the 7 mile mark but all in all it felt brilliant to get out and go for a run.
Just have to see how my knees fair for the next few hours and days.
NOTE TO SELF - Tape nipples up when wearing my pony vest in future! Ouch.

Poacher turned game-keeper
8 miles with 1 mile warm up. 6 miles tempo and a 1 mile warm down all the dreaded surface
Trying to plod up hills every day slightly faster than the day before
7.25miles/1350feet on t'Chevin and Danefield followed by pint of Landlord in Royalty
Another short session in the gym. 20k on the bike and 6k on the treadmill. Knee doesn't seem to like anything above a jogging pace.
A cracking 8 miler with Settle Harriers tonight - Helwith Bridge ---> Smearsett Scar ---> Pot Scar ---> Wharfe Wood ---> Oxenber Wood (bluebells every frigging where) ---> Wharfe ----> straight up the side of Moughton ---> over the boulder strewn top ---> fast down the bank between the quarries ---> back round the lane to Helwith.
