8.25 mile today on the roads planned on doing a bit more but my hip was aching after 4 miles and started struggling a bit. Wondering whether its down to new Asics Cumulus road shoes I have been using this week? only used them 5-6 times on distances of no more than 6 miles.
Eadle onto Kinder, Win Hill, into hope, Lose Hill, over to Mam Tor back to Edael, took it easy, nice running over Kinder, swarming with tourists and filthy looks from Lose Hill to Mam Tor![]()

I did an absolutely georgeous autumnal run this morning - from Bolton Abbey village hall down and north along the river Wharfe through the woods, past the Strid to Barden Bridge, over the bridge and continuing along the Wharfe, past the campsite to Daleshead farm, through the gate and up a c. 400 metre zig zag ascent to Simon's Seat, a boggy, rocky run along the top of the moor before descending to the valley of desolation and back to the Wharfe, through the woods overlooking the Bolton Abbey ruins, down to the river, over the stepping stones and back to where I started.
Something like 13 miles I'd guess - I did it in 1 hour 47 anyway. Brilliant run either way.
6.5 miles/600' @ 6'30" on the road for a change - need some leg speed and wanted to try my new top of the range Asics gel road shoes - can't get them dirty eh!![]()
