I know how you are feeling Pinno. Touch-wood I have just got over my 'latest' calf tear but it took 2 weeks of no running, including a completely lazy couple of days last w/e despite the glorious weather but I must say that the complete rest worked but once again I'm not gonna rush back into racing.Quote:

A steady 6 miles round local undulating woods for me.

Good to see you back in training Multiterrainer. Resting for me now this week then a gradual build up again. This calf strain is a nightmare for me used to suffer these a couple of times a year when I played footie.Quote:

Yesterday's training was my 5 mile Sunday morninger in the hills..... but done in the afternoon instead. I'll post today's training tomorrow :rolleyes:
A very enjoyable 7 mile trail over Hameldon way. Niggle free, sunny & warm - might be up for Stanhill race next week just before I go on hol.
11 mile trail over Norland Moor, down to Copley, back through North Dean Woods over Moor again and down into Ripponden to pick up kids. Now thats what i call a school run:D
a nice steady 5 miles this morning
About 9 miles on hilly roads last night. Including 3 x ~500ft climbs. Feeling fine after Mt Famine....:)
a day climbing today,going for a trot round kentmere tommorow
Only ran once this weekend after watching Fairfield.
The Windermere Marathon is hard and I was pleased to finish in 3:36:04 after feeling really good upto 18, feeling like hard work to 22 and then dead for the last three and losing half a minute each of these final miles. There were hills, hills between the hills, and hills on top of the hills. The organisers said it has the second most ascent of any UK road marathon after Snowdonia, with no one big climb but not much flat either. Dont know what the ascent is though.
Pleased with my winter's running but glad its over... so now for the hills!
Jason

6 1/2 miler mostly off road. My achillies objected to the piddly little hill in the middle of it, so I guess no BGR for me this year..... :rolleyes:

8 miles along canal, fields and parkland. Feeling strong so in second half threw in a few efforts;)
Last night I had a very easy 3 round Loch Ardining, a local beauty spot. All lovely springy & peaty underfoot. Was feeling ok really but tired soon and slight knots in both hamstrings appeared by the end, so back home for footy, more stretching and more rest. A lovely run!
:D

Jason - you missed a good run up Stronend from Culcreuch Castle. Just the 5 of us, but back home in plenty of time for the 2nd half, extra time and penalties!
A good 1 1/2 hours around Dovestones last night with two chums. A couple of stiff climbs, v. lakeland-ish terrain. Back at the cars at 9:30pm and it was still light. Ace. :D
Last night, did a 5 mile road race, legs still feeling it after Fairfield. Tonight got Hill rep session, don't know what as yet, see what the coach has got planned.

Just back in the office after an easy 30mins on flat roads....enough to keep the legs limbered up! ;) Resting up for the weekend.
A fabulous 8 miler last night with the Settle mob - plenty of rough terrain, a gorgeous run down through a bluebell and primrose plastered wood above Feizor, one chunky climb after that and a white knuckle descent to finish.
It must have been good as I bruised and cut my left knee, jarred my right ankle in a rabbit scrape, followed that with a nose dive and forward roll combo over a limestone boulder with my right knee and left shoulder also hurting this morning, although I'm not sure why :D
5 mile off road to work on singlespeed at 10pm, 4 mile home at 6am on road, clear, bright morning, a bit nippy though, bloody wide awake now:mad:
