    He's finished already.

    In the time I've got up and found my underwear on the bedroom floor he's run a 2:17 marathon.

    Bloody hell.

    well done RR. Hope you're not disappointed.

    Well done Roadrunner

    Leg 4 of the Calderdale Way, 9..summat miles, i'm calling it 10 cos we ran back to the cars and it felt like 10
    Cold but cracking day, a much better leg than the last one, more fell than road. Ran it with a couple of Raddy's, a couple of Toddy's and a couple of Crumblies

    11.5 miles over the only bit of decent off-road running I've got. Thought it all seemed a bit boggy and slippery, so got back and checked my local running clubs site. Turns out they had a cross country race over there this morning....

    Bloody runners!

    Recce of Bleaklow legof Tankys. Took it steady on account of the ice, just about 2 1/2 hr round trip.

    Met Tim from Tod (and his friend - sorry, can't remember his name! Stuart?) and then another pair of runners later on. Both pairs doing the same, checking the ground for next week....

    Cold out mind you, didn't get much above freezing (at least that's how it felt). Brrrrrrr!

    Fiensdale new route 7.5 miles and 2500ft. Another brilliant morning -5 c when set off, intially some very weird winds about very very localised, i think caused by temperature differential of hillside in sun and adjoining parts in shade, seemed to disappear after about 20 minutes.
    As we were descending the little bit of steep slope before the ascent of the shooting track, a gamekeeper on a quad biker was muttering something about bowland code of never descending on a 30% slope Something about preventing erosion - this on a slope I have gone down countless times over the last 10 years and is bilberry covered and shows no signs of erosion!
    Also in open access area and on a day leaving moreless no footprints on the concrete ground at that time in the morning from a guy on a quad bike
    Problem there are countless parts of the fiensdale route that has the same steepness as the slope I was on. Descent to sheepfold as a good example.
