Always run on Christmas morning. Shakes out the beer from the night before.

Nothing major planned, but will hopefully get out for a couple of miles with the dog. Just enough to get my appetite going for lunch!
Always run on Christmas Day, santa hat on and a little jog out to clear the head before I start the cooking and get my first G&T down me! Chevin Chase on Boxing Day as well.
I generally sneak out whilst the girls are at church in the morning, and as long as I've done my veg-prepping duties I'm not missed.
A 1-hour run would get me over Wildbank trig to Lees Hill and back, with 5 minutes stops for a quietist quakerish moment at each.
A 2-3 hour run gets me further afield, over the Wilderness to marvel and meditate above Chew and Dovestones reservoirs from the rocks at Chew Hurdles or Stable Stones Brow, and a gentle return via Alphin and Harridge Pike and Wild Bank again. I must say, I fancy the long run tomorrow, the Wilderness must be damp by now - I better get peeling.

I'm thinking of cycling upto burbage in the morning and having a plod over the moor and along higger and the skyline. Might wander over stanage for a moment of wonder. anyone heading up that way?
If its chucking it down I might just head from the door upto oxstones or something. 8mile round trip ish
wasn't going to....but now.....off out mid-morning!
Never mind Christmas Day running.....
Had an hours run on the hills, pub for a pint, now dinner etc.
13.1 miles, 1.45, 5x5 hills, about 1,200 ft of up; think what this might have been equivalent to if I was still in the Lakes.
