Three hours around the Goyt Valley from Kettleshulme. Pity it was raining! The bratwurst and pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord at the Swan Beer Festival went down well afterwards though.

4 mile speed training up black crag behind the Drunken Duck. I need to pick my race pace up and this is how i intend to do it.
hurting till I bleed is my new speed training motto. ouch.
4 miles fast yesterday on roads. Beat previous best beaten by 6 mins with 26 mins flat. Previous best was some while ago though.
Today, Leeds to Harrogate on footpaths and bridleways.
Shame I missed you (I was on first leg). I'd have shouted some abuse back, flat footOriginally Posted by Fleeter
had a cycle up to the x keys to watch the relays,theres nothing better than watching people struggle up running hill lane
Good to see you back, anyway Fleeter.
Back to 5.30am runs from today. And it is cold at that time of day.
For the past two weeks on my hols, I ran every day generally doing a nice 3.5 mile trot with a 5 or 8 miler (and one 10 miler) every other day. The 10 miler did include a small mountain too, all up an over grown goat track over boulders but luckily no snakes encountered.
During the day though I did shed loads of swimming in the sea, maybe 3 miles each day, and I was suprised that this swimming did make my calves ache for a few days. I feel pretty darn fit now I must admit, despite the added beer that a holiday necessarily entails. I guess the swimming + running regime has worked wonders
1 Hour 10 Min Run Round Dovestones In The Lovely Sunshine
12 miles/2,100' over Hameldon, Clowbridge res, Loveclough and back to Accy over the moors. Sunny and clear and never saw a soul apart from at the road crossings. Fresh as a daisy now which I take as a good sign......
Sounds more like a training camp - don't think the missis would see the funny side of it if I tried to get in that much training on holiday!!

Noticed you gave the biking a miss thoughthat takes occasional 'dips' on the beach rather than a beach person occasionally dipping in the sea. To be fair the place we go to (Stoupa in the south of the Pelleponese in Greece) has two fantastic beaches seperated by a headland with loads of opportunities for swimming out, snorkelling, swimming to caves, rock jumps and what not. Sunbathing is for whimps
