BG Training

[Derby Tup]

Thanks good advice.
Well I managed a good day of running/walking on Saturday. It was 24miles in total completed in just under 9hours, the conditions were knee high snow in places, icey on other sections, so all good fun!! A big loop heading out of Ambelside up the struggle/kirkstone pass over a fair few summitts towards Gatesgrath where we joined the L100 route which takes you to Kentmere before retruning to Ambelside.

I reckon hard days in tough weather conditions have extra added training value. We had one or two good ones last spring including a morning where we did four or five thousand feet up the 'dale in p*ssing train. Full waterproofs went on in the car and we ended up half drowned but happy with our work. Ken will tell you, they're the best days of your life and he knows about that stuff :thumbup:
