For goodness sake, don't ever mention that to Emily... make something up
Dark peak night race last night. over mam tor, Lord's seat, edale and back over mam tor.
First run out with my new headtorch, a supposed 1000+ lumen job from eBay for £21!
Torch seems good, only major issue was I forgot to order a UK adapter with it so started the race with whatever charge came over from China... Almost made it round, gave up just as I dropped off mam tor! Luckily I'd put a spare in the bum bag.
All in, co excellent trip out, think there were a couple of other forumites out too.
Cracking race. third place in quite a big field. If only I could descend....Quote:

First of the autumn. Just 3 mile round the lanes. Steady. Tried out new tights and top!! :)
:o
One hour brisk and hilly road run over towards Silsden over Cringles and back home. Hint of drizzle in the air but more fun than I expected. When do entries open for the Leeds Abbey Dash? :closed:
5 miles / 1,000ft with the club from the White Lion including now mandatory mid-week sweet stop around half-way round. Ilkley Black and home-make steak and kidney pie were both excellent in the Lion :thumbup:
Nice Haribos. Thanks.:)Quote:

Quick five miler with my head torch on last night. Bit too much mist really and a lot of light bouncing back. Very wet on moors behind our house in Carrbrook.
Easy club run tonight, quite a pleasant trot about.
Couple more easy weeks to let the joints recover then time to start training for the Fling and what lies beyond
Bit windy out tonight. Lots of stars. Is it ever not going to be really muddy and boggy again?
Missed DT and Stef. xx
and a re-run of last weeks route!
Well your route organiser obviously needs to be more creative.Quote:

35mins or so on the road this morning :closed:
Solo bat-run in the fog... decided to cut it short when my instincts and the compass disagreed.:o
1hr 30m'ish in darkest Fife, suprisingly mild
Tuesday night special, all by myself.
Lots of rustling in the bushes.

very interesting navigating going up using torch on 0.4 lumens
Fourth run in four days for me and blooming hard work tbh. Good evening in the Lion afterwards mind, and had a nice chat with Auntie sally and a quick stroke of Galileo :thumbup:
Night Nav race last night but not really fully fit at the moment which is worrying with the TOP this weekend.
Quite a big turn out 30+? Mountain Boxer turned up for his first DP run. I think he enjoyed.
One casualty that I patched up in the pub but stitches needed.
Rumour has it I may have scalped an elite forumite with local knowledge but not seen final results yet so I'll wait and see ;)
Cheesy, chicken pasta bake with Copper Dragon Victorian Porter to wash it down. Oh, we went for a run before too - around 4 miles / 700 ft? :closed:
For flips sake, Emily will see this... couldn't you have made it 7.
Nice vegetarian pasta to boot.
Club run, 1hr or so on the local stumbling about in the clag
Don't worry, I will take you on a nice tour of Bradley/Skipton moor next week to celebrate the full moon . Will be six exactly. Will have to park at Brad.Quote:

Interesting run on Cock Hill, Glossop last night with the club. A startled/dazzled grouse flew straight at me and gave me a smack across the chops!
I went out for a run with GlossopDale a couple of months ago, fantastic run, really enjoyed it. The fast group really pushed me to the limit. Only downside was I struggled with an I.T band injury for a couple of months afterwards.Quote:

Lovely night over Mickledon tonight. a good frost and stars a plenty.
Splendid night in Airedale with 14 club-mates including Stef, millipede, K1M plus Auntie Sally and his dog Gaz. Jupiter looked very close to the moon and I claimed the best Uranus joke of the evening :thumbup:
