Cracking little run out this evening, 45 minutes solo, then 45min with the club
Sparkly
freezing cold night but great run with Pennine. Just too short AGM night!
Can non-Penniners enter these night time races? And did anyone hear Bob Harris a few weeks ago on R2? Someone sent him a text saying they were running on Kinder in the middle of the night in a howling gale whilst listening to his show! Must be someone off here surely?
It is not a race just a club training run. A lot of the clubs would do the same thing. Just have a look at the club website for details. You are perfectly welcome to come to Hayfield at 7pm any Thursday night.Quote:

Sooo cold tonight. My shoe came off and I put my foot in the icy mud.
The stars were nice. Missed Dt and Stef.
Copper dragon Victorian Porter on good form.
Did you test out that ridiculous outfit tonight? :thumbup:Quote:

5.5m easy trail run out with the club, nay bad
Pennine's intended 3 hr run last night got cut back to two. Pretty difficult conditions, lots of rain and sleeting snow, plus ice underfoot. Enjoyable though for the four of us :)
A corker with the hound last night in deep 'graunchy' snow
30 minutes on roads for me tonight with a rather contrived multi-lap of the village route. Stunning night with an amazingly clear sky :thumbup:
9 miles 1600' on the roads last night. Some decent climbs to aide my journey back to fitness. I had a great night's sleep on the back of it as well :thumbup:
The stars were fantastic last night weren't they? I did the best part of a 6 miler in the hills with Harry and a sniffly Hester. Absolutely brilliant http://connect.garmin.com/activity/251148737Quote:

Blimey all this road running in the dark. A few scaredy cats amongst us I reckon ;)

Went for a Night walk last night. Not allowed to run yet but dark Peak had a Night race on so got some long exposure shots
Can't imagine you not running Ian, must be driving you bonkers
Club run for me, still cold. Great lumps of ice on the beach.
Not quite driving me bonkers but certainly driving the wife bonkers...:)Quote:

Me and my mate and fellow BG attempter Andy ran up Hartfell (806m) tonight with head torches, it was a bit bleak on the tops with low cloud and wind, despite us knowing the route well we had ajob finding the fence that leads to the Trig point on the top in the low visibility.But we eventually found it, here is a photo of Andy sitting on top of the 5 bargate just before the Trig point so you can get an idea of how deep the snowstill is on the tops.
Coming back down we had to make a decision on whether to come back on a compass bearing off the corner of the fence or just follow own meandering foot prints in the snow, we followed the foot prints, lower down the snow had melted turning the path into sheet ice making it a bit tricky Andy took a fall but no harm done. Mind you the dogs knew the way back even in the clag.

Sorry about the quality of the photo but it was taken with my phone under a head torch.

8 miles around Bolton Abbey followed by a couple of hours in 'spoons. Felt dreadful on the run, but a large gammon dinner, two pints and a chocolate sundae and I'm coming round a bit :closed:
Club run, 5.2m 1275ft. Rather enjoyable, bum slidey descent.
3.5 mile jog round village tonight was 28th run in 28 days :closed:
Well done, you two. :thumbup:Quote:

Was hoping for a full moonlit run... But clouded..
:)
5mile / 700ft-ish from the White Lion followed by chicken lollies and gujons made for a nice evening :thumbup:
All I've done is had a stressful evening discussing a women's BG relay attempt on fb.Quote:
