My first mid-week whiz round Ogden of the summer. I really went all out tonight too, blowing it out my arse (as my younger daughter would say) on the climb up towards Giants Tooth. I left it a bit late mind and it was getting really gloomy in the woods come the finish http://connect.garmin.com/activity/161926033
A nice but warm 7 miles up and around Wessenden from Marsden. 1090ft ups and downs in 1hr 6mins.
Excellent night recce of BG leg 2 last night... really perfect conditions. Had a biggish day round Langdale planned today, but after hauling myself out of bed after four hours kip and with legs like lead I decided to make the most of the weather and have a day to enjoy rather than endure. Started from Elterwater, up on to Lingmoor, down to Blea Tarn and nipped up to Side Pike where I had a cheeky 30 minute nap in the morning sun. Dropped down to ODG, went up in to the Langdales and on round to Silver Howe. Cracking day for the hills, though it really was hot up there.

Hills and Guinness!
11 miles hilly bike yesterday and today, tonight hard session with Harrogate Harriers doing fast intervals on the stray, legs feel ok though:thumbup:
6 miles round country lanes outside Penrith at lunch break. Was asked to go up Blencathra by a workmate but couldn't get the cover so had to make do with the roads. Bit gutted but at least hip seems to be holding up (ish).
