6ml / 800ft on Ilkley Moor. Good to see Trimm Tramm out and going well :)
7m/1000ft home from work, saw some curlews and hares and imagined my dog was with me, 3 weeks from now she'll be clear for walks, be a nice warm down after a run to go for a pleasant pooch poddle:)
Just started again after 2 months off. Last week
Mon - 6m easy with club along river
Wed - hill session on Helm, total 4m, 700ft, slow , v hard
Fri - 2mls easy
Sat - Bendrigg 10k 53.28, so tired but enjoyed being in a race at last & good workout.
Probably a bit much first week but so good running again. Foot more uncomfortable than painful now so improving slowly.
Cracking 8mile run last night in bowland from quernmore over Clougha pike etc, great weather
Club night on the Helm, steady run to ridge then reps. 1min, 2min, 3min, 4min, 4min, 3min, 2min, 1min, all trying to hold a sustained pace. Good session, lovely evening. creeping back to fitness.
60 lengths today
Amex, are you swimming as an aid to running, or as rehab or have you entered the great north swim or some other swim event?
Well Wharmton Dash on sunday at 2m/600ft. 17 minutes 52secs 4th place, then Snoops Loop race, 7 miles 1100ft or so, 48 minutes, 6th place. Steady 8 miles 2700ft last night 1 hour 17 minutes. Hill reps tonight, Harden Moss or Clougha pike on saturday then 15 miles 5000ft on sunday
Oh if life was so simple, i suffer from Achilles tendon bursitis, so if i run on say a Monday, its Thursday before i can run again, well i can run but the pain is well not nice!Quote:

Fell running gives me things in life that i just cannot find anywhere else
and before any body else say it there is no weight in water :p
Thanks mate, sorry to hear that but at least you have a plan! And the swimming should give you an Ian Thorpe type body, maybe...
