20 push ups........
I did 7and a half last night, on unlit back roads, with a head torch.
It was a bit spooky, worrying about axe murderers, but lots of good climbing.
I think I'll go for a swim tonight, although do feel a bit sick after the pancake fest.

Mrs. Barry and me where very pleased with our little tour of grinah/barrow stones and the Source of the Derwent sign thankyou. It was Mrs Barry's longest run to date (hence her looking a litle bemused!) but now that we're home with beer in hand she's well chuffed with the discoveries and amazed at your enthusiasm. 11 miles and about 2,500' for the record as we're on today's training.
Good luck with the Rigby and look forward to reading about it on here or the DPFR site.
Been o ff sick with virual illness, no running since for 3 weeks.
Started back tonight very steady did a 2.5mile run. Felt good.
Gradually does it!!!!! for he first 2 weeks.
Hi CREAD, I was also laid up for approx 3 weeks with chest and sinus infection, no running at all :(. Just been back running for a week now, first few runs nice and steady, kept the HR low..past three days just clicked straight back into it :) Funny thing is I probably think that the forced rest did me some good :). Snowdon seems to be filling up nicely.Quote:

Met 2 seperate walkers who had lost the group they were with and wanted to know if they were on the right path for Hope.
Then met 2 other walkers who when I said "Ow do" in passing glared at me in silence as if I had just uttered an unutterable insult.
Interesting in the hills these days.
Heaven sent opportunity for a laugh there!:pQuote:

Its getting sloppy on some of the paths.
If the clags down like today route choice will be interesting;)
On a positive, managed to run it all from fell gate at buttock to trig point, a first for me:)
I know what you're planning here Dom - you'll trundle around the route with the rest of us, all the way to Mam Tor, and then sprint down the steps to the carpark and claim a victory :rolleyes:Quote:
