    Re: Today's Training

    Todays training was a little local race. Now there ain't many hills where I live but this little gem was a killer for me. My first 5K race ever ...Penshaw Hill...ouch! I'm not cut out for these fast and furious things. I need more practise at anaerobic running and definately haven't been gifted with fast twitch fibres! :w00t:

    9 miles over Baildon, Burley & Bingley Moors last night. Finished off with 5 pints in The Old Glen. Rough this morning. Going back to not drinking methinks !

    Steady 4 mile round Eccup Res this morning at 6am, it's great running that early, just wildlife everywhere and no people. Love it

    3 1/2 hours out with Mikey P round the peaks. Roaches, Shutlingsloe, Cat and Fiddle, Debyshire Bridge, Axe edge, Flash and back. Started off with good weather and then it turned ever so slightly pants with driving cold rain. We met two friends, twice, going the opposite way on a six trigs rounds.

    Parkrun Leeds this morning, 17:58 for 5th place. No PB and felt crap most of the way round from setting off to quick. Never mind, still best position I've had at Leeds.
