Today's Training

[Roadrunner]

13 miles on moors. All off road, mostly on unmarked paths. Got a little lost and fell many times in the rough heather. Cracking day for it.

Doesn't count unless its running Who said that a while ago on this very thread.

Just noticed this . My nit picking about cycling before was nothing to do with training on bikes really. It was more to do with someone like IanDarkPeak reporting in on his training with a 45 mile mile gut buster of a run whilst someone like Ady (or Merrylegs) would then pipe up with their own 65 miler..... and forget to mention that they'd done it on a bike . You were cheapening Ian's efforts

Mind you my 14 miles on saturday and again 5 miles yesterday (on a bike) seemed to take as long as it would have taken me to run them!

A late 'un last night. Some 2 1/4 hours (~2800ft ascent) on the fells around Holme Moss/Black Hill. Started at Holme village, up the road to the aerial thingy then across the moor to Tooleyshaw before descent to Crowden. Then followed Crowden Horseshoe route/PW up to the trig point. Kept on going towards the Isle o' Skye road before turning right across the moor to pick up the bridleway to Holme (and the car!). Didn't see a soul.....just wildlife. Magical.

Wouldn't dream of cheapening IDP's efforts, however, Trainers are cheaper than bikes, go back to that bike shop in Skipton, Stolly, and look at the price tags, then you need a helmet, gloves, pedals, shoes...............the list goes on, thats why i'm running more these days

Seeing as the prospect of me running in the near future seems to be diminishing rapidly I seem to have become a cyclist...

20 miles yesterday, 14 miles today.
