| Easy run around the Licky Hills. Felt a bit rubbish and lazy at the start but perked up after a bit and finished strongly. |

| Steady run around Gotts Park including as many hills as possible. Legs good but fatigued at the end which is perhaps due to wearing my road shoes as they always do this even though theyre not worn out. Pleased to avoid the worst of the rain. |

| Tempo run with Niall down Meanwood. To be honest it was more like effort 5 and the pace he set off i thought it would be hard work (which it was). Got into the flow after about 5mins and was running well but Niall was tired after too much working and we called it a night after 20mins. |

| Terrain running on Ilkley moor. Properly hot like summer should be. Started in Burley on Wharfedale and went up to the 12 Apostles, did some orienteering technique stuff down to the cow and calf area then ran through the technical section (which is 8 feet deep in bracken) then up the hill past White Wells back up to the top plateau bit. Another dog had a go at me, dont know why as i always slow to a walk. Maybe i should just do a pre-emptive strike on every dog i see and kick it. |

| 5mins x 2.30 recovery x 4. Intervals with Niall. Was going to go to P+B but Niall was doing this so thought id tag along. Becketts was crazily wet and was splashing through water most of the time, ended up looking like id been swimming in the stuff (whilst Niall was relatively clean, must be the differences in how much we flick our legs up at the back). Felt strong but there was a lack of hills and my hamstrings were a bit tight which i think is due to running fast on a very unstable surface in not very grippy shoes. |

| Standard. Wanted to go for a bit of a cycle later on but it started thundering and raining and my bike is a bit rubbish. |
