10 miler on Thursday, Fox House loop extended to Include Stanage and Redmires.
6.3 last night steady road run. I've been taking a few friends on a run most Friday evenings as a social thing. Enjoyed it and there's plenty of hills where I live.
Debating a quick 5k tonight, haven't had a torch strapped to me foreheed for a few weeks!

Easyish week for me. 47m 8400ft.
Reintroducing push bikes whilst running everyday, 6 sessions (usually pre work) on the Turbo with stretching and some core work.
I'm being left unspervised next week from Wednseday onwards, looking forward to a lot of miles on the hill.

75 miles for the week for me.. Sun >Sat.. first week of taper for JFK 50 miler.. flew to USA yesterday.. raced Philly half today ran a pb in 1:13:36.. very happy.. the missus forgot her GPS so I gave her mine as I was just going to take it easy.. 1:17 was enough..
amazing how on a shorter race no GPS really could be better.. not sure on longs at all but I just ran off heart really, how I felt and pushed hard.
She ran 1:36 so turning into a decent little runner.
easy week now..
6 miler around Fox House again and onto Stanage to touch the trig.
Going by Strava my weeks gone like this - 34.9 miles 4,112ft climb. All off road apart from Fridays 6 mile steady road social.
