Today's Training

7miles - Ingleborough race route at nice steady pace. First run after saunders last week;)

Managed to fit a 3 mile run in this morning around Sherdley Park whilst Tracey took Harry to see the animals.

Good news stolly, hope the knee stays okay :)

My legs are a bit achey now - been walking up and down and up and down round chrome hill way :cool:

2nd time hill walking this week, ok ok I know it's not running but hopefully it will be doing my uphill muscles some good all the same :D

Working in Moscow this week - needed time on my feet in preparation for Kentmere and Borrowdale, so ran along Moscow river for 3 hours or so and found nice(ish) park

Crossing Moscow roads is much more hazardous than any downhill

Thanks Onehill - I think my knee is getting better :D

won local bike race 18 miles . 59 mins !!! which means 2 things . 1 there was nobody else any good in it . 2 something good as come out of having plantar f for one year .

As for me...well...hmmm...went on a night out and danced some...like really dancing!!! :D
Does that class as training? :confused:
Hmmm perhaps not,as the alcoholic calories intake far exceeded the dancing calorific expenditure me thinks!
(Foot swelled up too!) I'm still in the knackers yard! :(

Great news on the running front Stolly, looks like you're on the mend! ;)

A weekend of house touching up! Well it was horrid but its over and the estate agent is coming tomorrow morning. So I missed Wasdale and burnt of my energy with a hard 13 along the start of the WHW yesterday, not race pace but pushing on. Felt very pleased to be just 2 minutes off my 1/2 mara pb which was really surprising, as it didn't feel that hard.

Today I went up Ben Lomond, up the more interesting and mountainous Ptarmigan Ridge and down the tourist path. 7.5 miles or so and just over 3000 ft. Felt very good again.

Shame to miss the race but just keep going for Borrowdale now. Its good to have something to aim for.
