A nice round trip from Keighley to Cliffe Castle then Jubliee Tower before dropping down to Steeton then Silsden and back to Keighley on the canal bank.
Ducks, swans, heron, rabbits, hedgehog and a stoat I think were all spoted and enjoyed on the warm afternoon.
Oh I did 9 mile on my nature trail in 80 minutes:cool:
Club fell run from Taxal tonight. It's been fine all day and now it's beginning to thunder.
Expect there will be a downpour soon!:(

I did 15 minutes warm up, 25 minuted tempo run at about 90% of 10k race pace, if not quicker at times, and then a nice 25 minute warm down. Covered over 10 miles in total.
It's difficult to compare - I reckon a sub hour for a 25 mile TT is similar to a sub hour 10 mile road race. Today's average HR was 137 (my max 192) but most of my runs are 150bph+ average. I would say that todays ride was similar to a 2 1/2 hour run in the fells with a 155 average but that is just my perception. Today's climbing was only about 3500' so not too hilly really. 'Massive' is also relevant as a 75 mile cycle is what I would call a 'normal' ride but most of my runs are <8 miles yet with around 30 miles a week running I used to make the top 10 on a regular basis but with biking I struggle to make the top 3rd of the field in races - It's all good fun though :oQuote:

I got stung by a bee too:eek: Wouldn't mind but I was minding my own business no where near any flowers and on a road!!
Now if I was wandering aimlessly through a meadow I may have been a bit more understanding of said bee but as it happens I hope the thing had a very nasty accident:mad: My arm is a right mess (even though I had long sleves on):(
anyway, decided to go off and do my first ever marathon on saturday - Wharfedale, so guess I better rest until then and go off and eat lots of pasta! do jam donuts have the same effect?:D
knee a bit better after some stretches at dinnertime at work
11miles tonight at steady pace
feel a lot better now
6 miles along the canal with the boss. I think I may have ran too fast for him...there goes my raise! :o
