I'm back with a vengeance now sunnysideup....though still swimming a mile twice a week. :D

Apart from the Keswick 1/2 i'm not planning on doing anything on road. Sod the bloody tyranny of chasing PB's and all the injuries caused by road running, i'm sick of it.

I'm determined that 2007 is going to be about running over quiet canal towpaths, windswept moors, high mountain passes, pine needle forest trails and undulting coastal cliff paths and bollocks to 10k's on concrete. ;)

What have you got planned yourself?

:) sounds good danbert.

I don't know which races I am going to do yet other than I am going to do SOME MORE THAN LAST YEAR :D

Injury permitting:

Ben Nevis

Long:
Edale
Three Peaks
Borrowdale
+ 1 other long (Ennerdale/Wasdale/Manxman)

Local:
Trog
Stoodley Pike
Blackstone Edge
Noon Stone
CVFR Midsummer Madness
Good Shepherd Classic
Shepherd's Skyline

+:
Stoop
Auld Lang Syne
Some of Rossendale Series
Saltergate Gallows

+ some other ad-hoc ones

Other than that

Three Peaks

May
Jack Bloor
Austwick Amble
White Lion

June

July

To name but a few

This all negotiable with the other half who has most of these on her list. So I might be spectating with 2 hypo boys

Glad you are keeping up with the swimming - nothing like a bit of 'Lane Rage'

Thanks sunny side! - I think that'll be my list too - its ben really hard to plan your year's races when you dont have a fell calendar?

Errrrr let me consult my list!!!

Kidding apart - I think it is the same day as the white holme circular - which at 12miles - its more appropriate for three peak preparation no??? I feel like I live at penistone country park so I thought I might go somewhere different for a change!

I'll see you and 'M' soon enough to get the spare copy I'm sure..........

White Holme is highlighted on my list as well!! and you are right it is good prep for three peaks.

Dare I say.......... M is planning her 2007 race debut at Stanbury, so I better remain a good supporting husband!!

Night !
