Today's Training

[Mountain Goatess]

Excellent stuff Stolly! Well 'ard! x

Well done MG .

I ran the 'big' three peaks over the weekend; Ben Nevis, Scafell Pike and Snowdon. A blizzard at the top of the Ben on Friday evening, a howling blizzard at the top of Scafell at 4 am Saturday and driving rain and very strong winds on the top of Snowdon Saturday lunch time. Chuffing brilliant though.

All mountains run in shorts - none of this mamby pamby tights, leggings or waterproof trousers mallarky.

Scafell Pike - a bit parky

Good if very rough race in last nights summer series

8k and 650ft around Back tor and Abbey Brook. some fierce climbs. lots of route choices but mine this time let me down as I went from first to 5th between two cp but finished 4th.

Didn't stop there though as one runner went missing! and 4 of us set about reversing the route. He turned up though after 40 minutes looking a little sheepish. he'd missed a path junction at speed! easily done if you don't know the area.

so + 4k and 450ft

I'll second that! Real lung buster going up to Berrister's I felt, some great toe work thrutching up the banking.

Glad the missing runner turned up! Luckily I was in the pack so had Nicky & Andy shouting behind me which way to go! I'll put me compass away then...

Walked round sainsburys for four hours pulling rollers (the 6ft+ metal cages on wheels that carry the food/drink out onto the shop floor)
Quite a good work out really, but not for the knees.


And then got to cycle home is the pouring rain... drip drip drip
