    Why don't you pop over to the Dales one Sunday morning for a change?
    My pass with the Better Half doesn't let me off the leash enough!

    My job means that I don't spend a great deal of time with The Family during the week, so unless there's a race or summat on I like to stick close to home so's I'm not gone too long.

    However, somewhere reasonably local, if pre-arranged, I could start getting the brownie points in early (get my chores done beforehand) and get permission...over to you

    Well where can you get to SS? From google maps, journey times from Nelson are 48 minutes to Ingleton, 45 to Horton in Ribblesdale and 35 minutes to Settle. As for runs, I have frigging hundreds to choose from ranging from easy 1 hourers to gut busting 5 hourers. A real goody for example is a 15 miler from Ingleton up Whernside and Ingleborough and back which takes me 3 hours give or take (2:45 on a really good day).

    Ball back in your court

    I would be up for that one Stolly. Don't know the Ingleton side too well so it would make a nice change

    Sounds good. Weekend after this one then? I'm already committed to Sunday's run, with a few CTJM disciples turning up.

    Get thee to a physio before you do any lasting damage, or at least anything that'll keep you from training for a few months. Don't want to miss your intake. Prevention better than cure.

    Google Jump physio in Manchester. They sorted me right out.

    Yeah i think your right !

    I'll just stick to the bike and swim this week, keep any pressure off it.

    Well I can definitely do the Sunday after next - in fact I'll probably be running this route that day whether you two can make it or not. Meet at Ingleton at say 8:30 or is that too early? I can usually get parked in Ingleton at the top of "Main Street" or Seed Hill just around the corner at that time on a Sunday. (Google map search for 'Ingleton Main Street' and Bob's your uncle).

    Let me know guys - its a great run and if the weather's crap its even better

    I think you should explain to the good forumites that your mum was a physio, and that you're not just after permission to see one!
