3 very flat miles-no problems so far, fingers crossed!:)
Tanners - Yeoman Hey Res - Dovvies Quarries - Plantation - Greenfield...1:14:31hr....Recovery Run...
What a fantastic evening, the colours in The Chew were amazing, not a ripple on Dovestones Res (like glass) and the gritstone as I ran through the quarries was lit almost a deep amber by the setting sun...headtorch to finish....
Some runs, the memory will stay with you for a long long time, this was one of those runs :)
slow 11 mile, 1500ft over the hills very hard underfoot. legs still tired from yesterdays bike ride.
8.5 miles on the roads around saddleworth in 1 hour 10 minutes,Including 3 long hard hill efforts totalling about 30 minutes of hard work with the rest jogging
Roadunner was that you that passed me at greenfield station?,you came past so fast i couldn't tell properley
It sure was fleeter. I thought it was you, but wanted to get across the road and on with my hard effort run. was doing 15 mins warm, 30 mins at marathon pace, 15 mins warm down. Just hit 15 mins in the hard run bit when I passed you.
Thats my marathon training done now apart from 6 mile tomorrow night and 4 mile when I get to Florence . Bring it on!!!
Keep up the running Andy and if you are not going to watch or support your dad at Tankys pop across and do the Gravy Pud.

Approx 8 mile road tonight with the club with a few hill sprints thrown in. Bloody hard work, would never work that hard when out on my own.
Just a brisk 3.25 miles tonight all on road.
Good luck in Florence Roadie. Was wondering when race was earlier today :)Quote:

4m on road to work, fartleked it, 90 secs hard, 90 secs easy all the way including up Old Ripponden Bank, for those doing leg 1 of the CW relay, you'll be coming down it into Ripponden.
4m plod on road back from work, bloody nippy in shorts.
Last night: Club run up Pendle. Lovely clear, dry, cold night. Very dark especially as my head torch batteries started to fade. Felt crap before the run and great after. 75 mins :)
Good Luck Andi, 2.15 ?? !Quote:

I had my little lost sheep face on as i arrived (and had to go and buy a day-pass) so i walked up to a guy and asked him "is this the 7pm session". I got introduced to about everyone and they all seemed to like to shake hands with me. I got put with this guy who gets 41 minute 10k's as thats around what i go in the RunPreston. So i used him as my pace maker all night. But to be truthful, even though my knee was screaming out i felt like i could have run with someone slightly faster.
44:22min easy, lower level in The Chew....clag was in making it darker than dark can be for 5pm.....
8 miles hilly road run (c68mins) including the long drag up Woodhall Lane between Calverley & Pudsey.
Recovery run - 12 miles in 99 minutes.
75mins off-road headtorcher with the club last night. Nice to have Penguin and Antisocial back :)
Yesterdays: 90 mins trugging over the moors. Thought I'd go wild and go through an open access area with no paths. Spent about half an hour trying to jog (at best) through heather, bogs and burnt back skeletal vegetation. Still, came across some nice new areas and a great descending path off Pinhaw. Generally though; cold, wet and slow.:rolleyes:
Club night run from Midhope. Just under 2 hours trying to pick the way up and around Margery Hill and environs. Paths tend to be frowned upon so it's all heather & bog bashing.... :mad:
Same run as JODG
just about dried out :)
Should have said "Same run as SS".... :pQuote:
