cool how did you get on in the marathon? hope yee had a good holiday?
7 miles this morning steady state running, slow until we ran into a bull...
Ta Penguin. Did 3h 23m in the end. Hoped for better but seeing as I didn't do a lot of road prep before it's the best I could do - flew round the 1st half then suffered big time. Came 18th though so that's not too bad!
You ever been over there? The fells are superb.

Well done jodj for the marathon!
35mins on the road this morning. Weather much fresher today and I felt better for it
Ta DT, that's the last one I do! Bloomin' agony! Snowdownia was much easier last year. Only hills from now on.....Well done jodj for the marathon!
Couple of road runs I've done this week are the first road running I've done this year! I hate it - no wonder Roadrunner and his pals run so fast - it's to get it over with as soon as possibleTa DT, that's the last one I do! Bloomin' agony! Snowdownia was much easier last year. Only hills from now on.....
Jammy git!Actually, as short runs go, I don't have much choice espcially in winter as I live on top of a windy hill. But it's a bonus - we have a road that snakes down some 500+ft so makes for a **refreshing** end to any road run...
Fells for me defo - I've never experienced such pain as I had at the 12mile mark on the mara. Felt like all the lactic acid in the world concentrated itself into my quads and from them on was running through treacle. That'll teach me....
Et toi, DT? What's next for thee?
Trying to decide whether to do half or Full Yorkshire. I've entered the Montrail 'runfurther' series this year too and I'm trying to pluck up courage to enter either Highpeak 40 or what I'd really like to do this autumn, the Bullock SmithyJammy git!

Highpeak 40 - is that the overnight team event held in Feb? Not heard of the Bullock Smithy I must admit - any web site links appreciated!... to enter either Highpeak 40 or what I'd really like to do this autumn, the Bullock Smithy
