Okay, so Hursty was ill, what happened to the rest of you?

I was there Gary! a bit late but I was there. I left Barley car park about 9am and ended up doing the second half of the FTOP. I didnt see any fell shoe tracks till I descended Pendle heading back to Barley. I then saw two sets, one was Salomons (chevrons) and the other set was Walsh. I assumed that was you and Hursty doing another route of Pendle?. Checked at the cafe on the way back but you weren't there. It was pretty misty up there today but not much snow/ice to negotiate till the descent and final climb up the big end of Pendle.Originally Posted by southernsoftie

Sorry I missed you, these early starts are difficult for me
Aye sorry mate, I've been hit with fatigue so I think the right choice was made, had a nice lie in and done nothing all day, and now the Masters final to bring the week to the end, nice one!
Aye they could have been our tread marks from yesterday Alf, one of the lads had Walshes on, and I had me Salomons on hehe
Not to worry Alf. I finished my circuits at 9 and stretched, looking back own the road but couldn't see you. Then headed up behind fell wood. I must have just been heading oit of view as you got to the res.I was there Gary! a bit late but I was there. I left Barley car park about 9am and ended up doing the second half of the FTOP.

I carried on to the top of Geronimo; down it; along to pick up the Boar Clough route to the trig; from the trig down on the track parallel to and below the steps; and where the steps meets the cart track headed straight up again to the trig. Then went back on the walkers' path through the fields bringing me out by the Village Hall.
Needed the company to do those circuits, where bravado/competitiveness would have pushed me harder. Only managed 4 sets where I was aiming for 5, and my run on dead legs started off slowly and took longer than planned to shake it off.
Absolutely draining: a great sesh!
Wheres everyone running this weekend.
Pendle, bowland, winter hill.....im up for something sunday!
Incase softie see's this and is free - i cant get to nelson until 09:03 at the earliest (first train of the day) so if your on with an early start worry not.

If I'm ok after Wadsworth trog recce on Sat, I'll be up Pendle on Sunday I reckon mate!
I'll be up for the same as last week: 0800, Barley Car Park, 1 hour's hill sprint circuit, then 2hrs running. Sorry Al, can't make it later.
One problem: decorating tomorrow, and if I don't get far enough it'll go into Sunday, which may mean I have to call it off. I'll post an update on here tomorrow night.
Holla.
Hey no worries softie. Enjoy your beasty sesh!
Will know tomorrow night if I'm game for a sunday trot!
Hursty, im not going to be able to make it to pendle.
Not made any process with my uni work and need to do that.
