Sunday

an excellent weekend:D
10 miles 3000ft
Evening run, 50 mins around Hudeshope valley, Teesdale, to the top of Monk's Moor and then a few hill reps on the hushes around Howgill. Glorious sunset. Part of my new 'run every day route' - we shall see;)
Nice run with the headtorch this morning. 5mi on lanes and farmer's tracks. Plenty of owls about. Nice and crisp morning. Good to be alive!! :)

Had a cracking headtorch run in bowland saturday, early hours, was running towards fiendsdale head when sunrose, very nice 14 miler
After 2 miles it became a topless run over Hameldon hill and a loop back home after work at 1pm today. In the name of improvement, the uneven hard packed trail up the Coppice has been tarmaced!!!
oh topless!!!
I know about the track! How bad is that still will be lots of fun in winter when it is icy!!
Guisborough Moors Race route....12.3 miles....2200ft ascent.....
Dragged myself round this kicking and screaming.....ouch....legs did not want to go.....or was it me telling myself 'I can't'!!! HUMPH...THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS CAN'T!!!

(Ps.......no topless episodes from me!!!!!) :eek:

Half Tour of Pendle for an early wake up run this morning. Intended to get there earlier than I did (0640) but still needed the headtorch to start with. As I got to the top you could see the lights beginning to twinkle as everyone woke up. Lovely crisp hill outlines, with a bit of mist lying in the valleys. Very peaceful.
Ready to face the day after that!:)
Back running again, 3m to work, 5m home then out for hill reps with CVFR juniors, no pain from shin, excellent, plod on:cool:
4 miles easy run but couldn't resist a sprint up to top of Bradlow knoll (which is Ledbury's highest "peak" at least a good 5 mins of up!) back to proper training tomorrow...
(for all of you that follow the barefoot thread, I did about half a mile in barefoot carrying my new 285's!)
not so easy week though.Quote:

10 miles and a bit at lunchtime. Loving lunch time runs but you got to remember to eat a good brunch at 10.00. ahh the joys of self employment...
6.5 ish up Hameldon and down past Baxenden golf club. Felt 1/2 runner like and achilles did not seem to mind getting out. Let's hope I can build further on it and start thinking about doing a race or 3 over winter ;)
Ady - I thought your training incvolved eating pies today!!:)
OY!! I was on the veggie option which is of couse diet :eek:Quote:

7 miles trail run
Beasty session yesturday before work.
Off-road 4 miles across the fields near me to a hill - it's kind of a big decent into a valley/river and its beltin for hill reps.
I did 3 reps first.....ran to the top, touched the gate and turned round and flew back down and had 2 minutes rest.
Then did the same - 3 reps but with 1:30 rest.
Took me about 2 minutes - 2 minytes 10 to get the the top...and 1 minute to get back down.:D
Then about 3-4 miles across the fields back home.
Either Langdale is still very much in my legs, or that session was a real toughy because i was knackered!!! - either that or both.:D
Had a run in with a massive heard of cows...and a miserable game-keeper.:mad:
7 and a bit trail with rather steep twisty and technical descent which was well and truley bombed down! First head torch run of the year but only needed for about 20 mins before sun was out.
2.4 mile on the Rehab trail
Good to be back on this thread:)
Great news mate:)Quote:
