28 mins easy mostly flat run. The field paths have all dried out again after last week's rain..
cycled to the post box - 200 yds at most
17 miles and 7000ft in the wonderful sunshine! Thanks to Mike for guiding us round Borrowdale (and giving me food for thought!) and Ed for not getting us lost for those final 4 miles!!
Dave and Keg (the collies) certainly made light work of bolder hoping and climbing! Not sure the same can be said for me, going to have a wee think if I'll pin the number to the vest in August or find a comfy seat in the beer tent!:confused:
Number emmi, you know you want to ;) (hark at me!)
Just been for 40 min run. ALready feeling better than yesterday which was an awful run.
Very warm today hope it lasts til the weekend :)
Is it June 23rd already! :eek:Quote:

no running for me again!
Did get out on the bike for 30 mins after my physio session thou!
Apparently my knee is ok from a functional point of view and nothing obvious wrong with it, ie physi couldn't get it to hurt.
Going to give it another week and see how it is before I go seek some more help! :mad:
Sounds familiar.:(Quote:

Shiny new pumps and no pain in the shins at all:D quads are still mashed from monday - not not to worry!!

An hour on Otley Chevin/Danefield with club then home for the rest of the footie.
6 miles on the fells last night - good run enjoyed it and amazingly my legs feel so much better today:D
that's 27miles in 3 days and only 4 of them on tarmac!:)
sounds good emmi - in fact I am (almost) shamed into getting myself out the door right now:D (in actual fact it will take me a good 20 mins to get round to it :rolleyes: )
Just been for a run.
Bit of a disappointing effort really.
Will make up for it tomorrow :D

did an hour in the gym this morning as thought I could go for a run this evening but I can't - no babysitter:mad: feel cheated now:(
Just a recovery 4 today
I am trying to get 30 mile a week running and 50 mile a week on the bike.
My speed and fitness has slumped lately and Fairfield give me the kick up the back side in needed.
Hour on the bike then 8 mile run. ooomph coming back!
couldnt keep doin nowt everyday so i went for a wee run offroad. 6 miles. Legs complaining a bit towards the end though.
11miles off road
this hard uneven ground really hurts my clubmates tootsies
and they dont like stiles
4 days off now :(
One dozen, and boy am I stiff and sore.:o
30 odd miles on the bike. Flat route - decent pace. Sunny but cool and windy - it might be vest and shorts for running but cycling still requires a layer or two more
Crap, running like a drain:(
Yesterday a crap 40 mins (less than 5 miles) -just felt lethargic:(
Today a much better 70 mins c9 miles:)
25 mins steady, then 3 min, 4 min, 5 min, 5 min, 4 min, 3 min off 1 min jog, 30 mins steady.
my 3 weeks of hard training is now over :)
easy week now, then triathlon, then another easy week and welsh castles relay!
wednesday white lion 29.34 18th ( training race)
thursday 1 mile warm up - 10x200's 2 mile cool down! ( speeed session)
friday burnley 10k didn't wear a watch so i don't know what time i finshed or position. ( not flippin sure)
rest today.. :) ( Good idea ! :D)
20 minute warm up, 4 x 1 mile off 2 mins recovery. 5 x 30 secs off 30 secs recovery. Long warm down.
16 miles this morning, Darwen tower, edgerton, Entwistle.
Fit for nothing now :o
Sat - short easy bike. Easy run.
Today - heading out now (in the rain) for 50 hilly miles
on the bike
Was bored today of heading out on the same paths, when I am sure there will be many local paths that I have ran passed many times but never ventured on. Decided I wanted to stay low down today so didn't head up on the tops of moors but played a game of investigating new paths. Some lead nowhere interesting, others opened up a whole new world to me in my local area. Gave me loads of new possible routes and distances to use. Some I will very much head out on again others I wont go anywhere near. 1 hour 34 mins of pure pleasure. All on my own, no distractions.
Most interesting place is the area in Broadottom behind the houses in what I think is some old brick works. A lot of time and investment has been made to make it walker friendly and accessable by my people.
