8.2 miles over Baildon & Ilkley Moors. A couple of inches of snow, lovely.
14.5 miles from my house to half way up Black Hill and back. 2300 of ascent and brilliant snow fun.
12 and a bit across local fields. Reet knackered legs.
Hill reps on tuesday and the just a short run on thusday and then its Noonstone:eek:
10 miles with 1200' climb round local snowy paths and tracks.
16 miles, 2000'+ climb, local run as the dark and white mm was cancelled. Nice morning out, pretty slow because of the snow and a tight groin muscle on my running partner..... but still lovely to get out in the clear fresh winter.
ZHR. On Friday it was good a bit powdery at Esk Hause but generally good across the crinkles and elsewhere. Down hilling was great breaking through the fresh snow either side of the obvious trail, much easier than if there was no snow. saturday am in keswick looked good but had to be home in Nottingham by 2pm so no time to check out conditions under foot. Enjoy your recce's this weekend.
