Training Log: bethh

Bit of galavanting around on Loughrigg this morning being filmed for a Uni student project, then ran back down from Todds Crag

Loft Crag, Pike of Stickle, Harrison Stickle, Pavey Ark, Thurnacar Knott, High Raise, and Sergeant Man.
Easy with Trina :)!! Bit rough underfoot however, deffo not my fav loop of Wainwrights but they're done now (I'm on 49!).

Managed to wangle tomorrow off work as I'm on day 5 out of 8 and theres no way I can work 8 in a row........zzzz.

6-4-2-4-4x1-2-4-6 (2mins and 1 min between 1s), tempo effort on Loughrigg
Only at the second 4 minutes was it beginning to get light, made things very interesting- I need a better headtorch if I'm going to get through this winter..Felt weirdly good and enjoyed it too much for a pre-breakfast, hilly session (first one in a very long while...), in the dark and wet !!

Up and a rushed down because again I was a bit late to get ready for work......

Had to de-ice the van this morning... may mean an even earlier than 6am alarm as I was in a bit of a rush after this for work..

With all the lads. Not pushing the weight because of wanting to feel as fresh as this weekend! Feeling unspringy to say the least, I failed one box jump for the first time ever :(

Dove Crag lower path-- Red Screes and back loop.
Late start at work meant my 7.30am alarm felt like a lie-in. Pre-breakfast and I felt great :). Was expecting some damage from the storm but it was absolutely fine, and warm enough for just a t-shirt!
Not a great sleep because sore ear.

Meaning to have one for a while, and with the Storm making it awful, not able to get to the gym in working hours, earache and the fact it was still dark till 7.30am meant this is very well timed!! Not sad to be in a warm bakery all day that’s for sure.

Horrible ear pain which got worse through the day- popped out to the doctors and I have a large boil in the canal which should hopefully get rid of itself in the next couple of days. So painful :(
