got the Haworth Hobble weekend after next: 33 miles, 4,400ft
this Saturday as a training run, I could do either a 22 miler, which I have done a couple of times already, and could therefore try and do it quickly
or a 32-miler, which would be the first time I've run more than 22m, and so would be a real test
Answers on a postcard please.
27 sounds like a better idea.....shouldnt wear you out and will add on extra mileageOriginally Posted by ZootHornRollo

Trying to plod up hills every day slightly faster than the day before
Anything above 20 the week before a race like this is insanity in my eyes. You should of done this run earlier. In the last week you will not get any gains. Stick to a solid 20 IMO. Good luck.got the Haworth Hobble weekend after next: 33 miles, 4,400ft

The Journey of 1000 miles starts with a single step

Get round on a slow plod as a training run then feel free to do either if you are up to it.
Get the best time possible on the hobble then I wouldn't go more than 15 steady this weekend.
I'm missing the hobble this year so I'm stronger for the skyline
"was hoping myself that two weeks would be enough to recover fully"
oh arse, it's one week isn't it - what a dope!
