Tuesday - 8.5 miles steady club session round chevin, bramhope and carlton, slightly tight calf but felt reasonably good.
Pyramid track session tonight - 200-400-600-800-1000-800-600-400-200 @5:45 pace with 200 jog recoveries. Surprisingly good session, after my calf felt bad yesterday I thought I'd have to rest but seems not
I must run more marathons, it seems to agree with me!
30 minute blast from home around the footpaths and low hills. The aim was to push the pace all the way round and run hard up the hills. Missed hill reps yesterday when my wife forced me to have tapas in manchester.
Couldn't get out of work fast enough today. Saltaire, on the canal, into Glen Woods, up to Golcar Farm, Dick Hudsons, Bingley Moor, 12 Apostles, Ilkley Moor, Keighley Gate, Rombalds Moor & High Plantation & into Ilkley on The Millenium Way path. 11.1 miles & my marathon legs felt fine !
10km race in Battersea Park: 40.47
Followed by 29-mile bike ride: 1h47m
10 miles run up and over Bleaklow with Mikey P. Parked up at Shepley St and ran along doctors gate then onto shelf benches. Dropped into Dowstone clough and ran up that to take us onto the plateau. Across to Higher Shelf trig -> Hern Clough -> Grains in the water -> Bleaklow Stones -> Near Bleaklow Stones -> Black Clough -> Bleaklow Head -> Pennine way towards Crowden -> onto path by the Barrow -> Shepley street. Got caught in a hailstorm on the way to Bleaklow Stones which wasn't fun in bare legs. New territory for Mikey P so it was well worth going.
