A climb-heavy day today. Totted up the week so far and up to 25 miles/10,000ft so far. Easier day tomorrow. 2nd nephew arriving tomorrow so on family duties!
The week's training finishes a day early, due to racing tomorrow. Total of 47 miles and approx 14000ft.
Fairly happy with that after a couple of bad weeks. Felt very good all week, a couple of great hill sessions. Nothing but a pb will put a smile on my face at Breidden Hills tomorrow though!
10.8 miles of mostly walking but some running today with Keighley Parkrun in the morning, and walk along the Leeds - Liverpool this afternoon calling in for coffee plus cafe at the Five Rises cafe. Talk of a walk in Stollyland tomorrow
Yesterday was first run for 3 1/2 weeks due to back problem before holiday. Did some walking on holiday, but just tried to look after back as didn't want to ruin hols.
Back home and did 4 miles yesterday at 9 minute mile pace, so passable.
Gentle jog/walk today in Billinge Woods. 6 miles/1000ft.
All feels OK. So far, so good.

Just over an hour this evening enjoying the last of the sun with a mixed interval/hill rep session in Warley Woods.
early 3 mile around Witton. Probably do similar tomorrow or Saturday and if all OK will be out on the hills on Sunday maybe Great Hill or Darwen Moor.

Hope to get back on the training tomorrow after a somewhat stressful week with family illness... may have to forego the Snowdonia Marathon, as my travelling companions probably not feeling up to the journey, and I’ve missed another week of training...
Keighley Parkrun
And a seven mile walk
