19.4 miles off road at target pace for my 30 miler in 4 weeks.
A pleasant run from Edale up Grindsbrook to Ringing Roger and back to Edale via Ollerbrook.
Home - Plantation - Wimberry - Nav out to Inspection Chamber (missed it, found pipeline and nav'd straight onto it) - nav out to Bowerclough Head upto Chew Hurdles, Stable Stones Brow, Wimbery, descend, Plantation and home...Fantastic nav conditions, vis down to about 20/30ft at times from Wimberry to inspection chamber (Irontongue Hill).....Thigh deep heather and knee deep peat - ideal running surface :rolleyes:
All told 2.19.33hrs, crackin' outing :)
Short 4m/1292ft trot before tea, busy buggering about with caravan and buying endless bits and bats for it, never realised caravaning was that complicated:confused:
Respect to Gypsies;)
6ml or so this morning from home on the Dales Way and over Pike Haw farm. I ran around 65miles in July and 75miles in August with just a couple of short races and I'm enjoying running for fun after a hard 1st half to the year focused on training for the Yoredale 100.
45 mins by the side of the canal in Ashton Under Lyne
