Today's Training

[IanDarkpeak]

It may be modest compared to some of the recent posts here, but last Friday Toffer and me did 45 minutes around The Garth. What made it special is that it was the first run we have had together since 2008!!!! Have really missed my old running partner and was fearing that his nasty injury was going to mean permanent exile to the Dark Side (cycling) but, no, he IS running and pretty damned well too!

Fab 1 hour dap through the bluebell woods around home this evening. Still light enough to see at 8.30. Bliss! Hard packed trails, low undergrowth, overpowering smell of blossom. Lambs bleating. What a fabulous spring we are having.

It doesn't really matter how fast/high/long you go, as long as it's in the right company in the best setting. they are the ones that count

Good news Wheeze :thumbup:

That is more than I have done this weekend :sneaky: I have spent the whole lovely sunny weekend working on my Open University assignment. Pfft. Nearly done now though, and I have remembered to bring my running rucksack to Manchester this week so I can run too and from work every day

7 miles on road tonight, 7.24 per mile(pleased)... last week total was 40 miles and 5023ft of climb(5 hours toal running time), 5 runs in one week, not been able to do that numbers of runs and distance in one week for over two years.. pleased isn't the word..

[shaunaneto]

Just tallying up last week, pretty good week with 46 miles and 14700ft ascent.

More importantly got to run with some grand folk, IDP among them. Some great running and I'm already eyeing up a long run out to Ben Alder early next week, to bothy or not to bothy?

Good effort, always good to build up the habit I find!
