I may get out on my road bike for an hour tonight, done nothing since, but the rain was a good excuse not to walk the dogs last night.
Hope the recovery is going well.
Hi Iain recovery seems ok a little puffiness and bruising on the feet but managed 6 very easy miles on a small hill local to me with my collie, and everything still seems to be working Ok, biggest pboblem seems to be satisfying my hunger.
All the best
Canal was surprisingly dry tonight! :) Did a good session.
(I mean the towpath of course!)
15 min warm up
3k race 8.36
20 min cool down
You ran well Bone considering you raced a hard 5k on Sunday. They gave you 8.26 on the official results!!!! (I clocked you at 8.36)
God 65 minutes for me with a run up the front of th trig. (For those who did the Tour of Tameside, up the front of the trig means running up that very steep route you fly down on the fell race leg.)
Fantastic 45 mins in the wind and sunshine. All is right with the world after the last couple of (nearly flooded) days...
Nothing today,
Im having a relatively easy week this week. I done four hard weeks with a good few races. Ive noticed a sliding scale of results as the weeks went by
So time for an easy week thinks, see if things improve next week.
Probably tired my wee bones a tad
1 hour fiteen run at the round the resers race in longendale (i didn't race)
Beamsley Beacon BOFRA race last night followed by large meat and potato pie in the Fleece:)
6 miles up n down the Malvens 6:00am today.
same for meQuote:

School prom now.
Three miles with the dog, first time I've taken him out, i don't think he knew what was going on. But he had a nice run round, he seems to have stopped working though.
11 miles / bucketed down all the way :(
No running today. Might do a gentle cycle.
10.5 mile around some new routes on the moorland above Delph and Marsden.
The weather got better and he is thinking about a route for a race.
What a good morning me and Stagger had.:)
beats running over half a mile through a wooded track which has overgrown considerably since I last visited it. :eek:Quote:

4 x 7mins off 2 mins recovery.
Hard work in the never ending rain.
8 miles today, couple of big blisters effin' mudrocs :mad:
just got back in from 6.5 miles over hobson moor im very very very wet :rolleyes:
Back from holiday. Cumbria I love you. - 7 miles steady away- legs felt rubbish after 4 days off (not what I intended but was just too busy to get a run in most days).
my leg of the derwent valley orienteering relays
nearly 14miles from youlgrave to crowdicote then to hartington over the fields and hills
pissed down all day :)
A slowish 13 miles (2 hours) with 1 big climb in the middle (1,100ft) mostly trails and fell. ran it all the way. Bad stomach cramps near the end though. Very wet up there!
You think thats slow, took me and hopey, well mainly me slowing hoepy down 2.5 hours to run 13 miles, heavy going underfoot though ;) Possibly soemthing to do with the run yesterday too.
Bone and I did 90 minutes on the moors. Stayed dry as well!!!!!
Not the fastest, but I enjoyed my 11.75 on the moors. 135 minutes it took but what a grand run. Crossed the M62 twice, once by J22 then down by Hollingworth lake, but the good thing was within 200 yards you would'nt know it was there. 2200ft of ascent acording to the Garmin and never felt a drop of rain.:)
Bone dry?Quote:

when are we going to get some decent running weather:(
Skiddaw race 9m
All was well on the way up - walked a fair bit- think I couldve ran more but it's hard to resume running once you've walked a while.
All went wrong on descent (as usual). Lost about 4places on way down skiddaw due to being too careful. Then another few on descent around Latrigg due to my feet hurting so much. Blister under each big toe, one heel blistered and two very tender heel pads. I dont think I'm gonna be able to use Walshes, they seem too soft (although this race featured quite hard, rocky ground most of the way, I'm sure boggy, grassy ground would be better).
penyghent and ingleborough 15.6 miles 3639 ft of ascent
5 miles this morning.
What was the problem with your Walsh shoes - too tight, loose, wide?Quote:

10 miles with 16 x 1min efforts. All on roads. Got soaked running through Moorfield.
Did 5 hill reps up to Darwen Tower from a gate a 1/4 of the way up
5 * .5mile 320ft = 2.5miles 1600ft
plus 2.5miles back down
5miles 1600ft in total
Need to start feeling confident about running uphill again.
Might try 6 next week.
Emmilou and I did 1¾ hours on Winter Hill this morning.
About 7 or 8 miles and numerous river crossings!
Never seen so much water! It was cascading down into Horwich.
The road was flooded outside the Great Barn.
Cleaned my shoes up a treat. Just got to dry them out now!
Nice avatar swoop, whats up with the background. you runningthrough a haze
