Today's Training

[Multiterrainer]

An hour plus on Chevin & Danefield - great to be out on terrain midweek again. Felt good on both the steep climbs and the (not so steep) descents.

[Antisocial]

7/8 miles off raod with club last night - got beasted and as part of current injury back went in final third, very sore small of back and shooting pains down both buttocks.

Lots of stretching and 20miles steady bike ride spinning small ring tonight. slowly starting to feel like a cyclist again.

[Derby Tup]

Just over an hour with club tonight off-road around Farnhill area. Brilliant to be out in t-shirt and shorts in the light Felt surprisingly good after last night's race too

Warm up consisted of core strength exercises- 201 sit-ups; 50 press-ups; 2x20 arm curls; followed by a 5 miler over the fells from front door to Hardberry trig point, down to Red Grooves House and back home again, 46 mins. Lovely evening on the fells, just me and the curlews.

It got better as it went along. Just the first few pounds on the pavement send shockwaves through my knees.
I adjusted the way i ran so then i was running alot lighter footed....and slowed it do a notch.

Heel to toe, Al, don't pound! Can you not run on grass (park, not fell!) ?

Well i may try that actually. I have a cricket pitch behind my house. Will have to wait until it goes dark because im horrendously self counsious and i dont want people seeing me walking then running over and over again.

Last night: couldn't get to the 'warts run at Strines so did my own: from Langsett over to Cut Gate and then down to Howden. A couple of hill reps and then home. Perfect evening, no other bug*er out, magic. Just shy of 2 hours.

Followed by a take-out curry from the Flouch. Bliss.
