Saturday - 2hr run around snowy Pendle
Sunday- A good 2 hours up, over and around Ingleborough from Ingleton. Very snowy, icy and damn cold on top. Ran in Kahtoola spikes, great to get them out and not be sliding about! Good to get back to car and hot coffee!!
12.5m yesterday and 6m today.
Both on the road, to short on time to get to a hill. I'll rectify that tomorrow.
About 12km each today and yesterday, a bit more hilly today, but ran faster. Still plenty of snow mostly, but melting in rivelin valley.
Feeling surprisingly good considering the amount of junk eating and laziness which has characterized 2013 so far!
There was plenty of snow about on the tops above Conistone & Grassington on this mornings 8 mile training run:thumbup:
Running it was not, wading is more appropriate
Distance and ascent irrelevant, it was just bloody hard work
2 mile in Pogu Spikes to check em out then 45 mins hill reps in wellies, in knee deep snow with mutts, head deep for the pup:w00t:
Not much but better than nowt:thumbup:
Pogu Spikes and wellie reps sound ace! Good work steve :w00t:Quote:

No tracks in the snow where I went today
Last few days' training has been towing a toddler around a snow covered BMX track on his sledge. While walking a dog, morning and night. Surprisingly tough work! Pretty good accidental interval sessions, even a nice warm up of pulling him up the 400m across, 50m up hill from our door to said track.
Got out for a run tonight, just 20 minutes trying out new la sportiva xc shoes... But still a nice trot in the.snow so I'm happy
