Today's Training

Ashkam village to High Street and back. About 20 miles according to my string-o-meter. 4 hours 7 minutes and the last 2 miles before the village were hell - grazing sheep overtaking me - but at least I made it back to the car without resorting to fellwalking!

Nothing really steep, just a long ascending ridge - more of a bog trudge really. Snow on the fell from High Raise up to the Street. Turned at the Street to return home only to find a stiff head wind and flurries of sleet - lovely! Still good for a ruddy complexion perhaps.

First longish run since September and the start of ITB syndrome. Got back to running from New Year.

5-6 miles up Bleaklow
Snake Pass-Pennine Way-Bleaklow Head-Wain Stones-Hern Stones-Bomber Wreckage-Higher Shelf Trig-Pennine Way
Nice bright sunny morning without a cloud in sight :D

21.64 road run ( goggle earth) need to get out of the training comfort zone , 3 peaks just 'round the corner.

4 mile this morning. Today's run had to be cut short as was feeling unwell.

20k over great hill, winter hill etc - in glorious sunshine. Not fast and still very wet underfoot but wonderful to be out. It might set me up for a week in work

14 miles Saturday at bowland starting at fell foot. parlic, to paddy's pole, drop down to holme farm, up to fiensdale head, drop down to langdale castle ruin. up to saddle fell, back up to pole then parlic and fell foot. Nice run, got batttered by some hale.

Hilly road run after skiing yesterday. about 6 miles, down though some woods until i picked up a steep windy road something akin to alp duez for 4 miles before a steep road descent back to village.

will repeat tommorrow

Went to the physio yesturday and ive not to go back for three weeks.

Ive been set with the task of actually going running!

Nothing fun and exciting but ive been given a mini programme to see if he can piece together any relationships between why things go wrong/pain as and when.

Ive been told to run every 3 days. Run for 2 minutes, walk for 2 minutes and do this for 20 minutes.
He's told me its going to hurt but ive got to write it all down and keep doing my rehab exercises.

Ive been told to stay on the pavements and stick at a slow and steady pace. :(

Knees are abit sore from being battered at the physios yesturday but im guna go for it.

Wish me luck, im going to give it a try.
