13ml on South Downs Way from Butser Hill to Beacon Hill and back with Stef F. Glorious day but sadly no snow down here
5 miles on undulating roads in 31 minutes :D
Made it up onto Pendle from the Nick today. Took the mutts with me, yet another wave of snow has made it even deeper, and very tough, but enjoyable going off piste! :p
Met a few fellow runners just after CP6, then stopped in the shelter to share a Ginsters with the mutts, as they were suffering in the deep snow abit!
Managed to make it off in time before the snow got any heavier, looks like its coming in again!
2 hours dead on today.
1 hour of tough up and down stuff, running in ankle deep snow around the stunning winter wonderland of Castle Eden Dene, just North of Hartlepool :cool:
Testing the ankle after 5 weeks off. Run out 3 mile, through the woods to Roche Abbey and walk back. Everything OK....
Now to think about shedding those pounds :D
50 mins off road in deep snow yesterday...hard going
90 mins off road in deeper snow today....harder going :eek:
no forecast for a change in the weather yet..still in scotlands perma-frost
So another year, two moves of house and 3 jobs later, I'll try and log on here consistantly again
yesterday dropped off on way home from famly, 5 miles very snowy trail back to holmfirth, when the drifts were knee deep the dog was very giddy. Fun!
Today easy 3 trail with dog and partner, less snow, more slippy
Happy new year indeed!:D

I went round the Coiners Fell race course today. All the boggy bits were covered with ice and snow but I still managed to find them :D A few walkers out round Stoodley Pike but I didn't see any other runners. Probably got more sense than me.
Nice easy run in the local woods and up onto the edges of the moorland. about 5 miles, bit under 1000' of climbing, 42 minutes. Snow has made some of the paths round here much quicker than usual, just takes a bit of confidence that the usually slippy and boggy traverses are actually grippy (and the landing will be soft if they're not!)
A nicely paced 9 -10 miles. Absolutely pegged it up all hills and loved running fast on lactic legs! Don't know what got in to me today I only intended a quick 4 miler, but had so much energy I would have carried on all day if I had brought some food... Malvern hills were beautiful and conditions were slippery frozen snow, some patches were melting a bit in the sun but not too bad, made the Malverns feel a bit more like mountains which is always nice.
