| The weather looked perfectly fine in the valley and i only took some gloves as an afterthought. However, when climbing out of the valley the drizzle turned to sleet then a full on snow storm above about 300metres. The bottom half of of my legs froze after running through some terrain but thawed out eventually. Decided to try and reach the monument on Stoodley Pike but after getting within about 400m of it i put my hands in a pile of snow and my rubbish woollen gloves became sodden and freezing so i thought better of it. Felt great running the whole way and didnt get tired at all, maybe cold weather running turns me into a super human machine (doubtful). |

| Short (approx 50+ secs) hill reps. Short and sharp and hard work. Was going to do some longer reps today but got delayed for various reasons during the day so ended up doing them in the dark. |

| Warming up and down. No stride or drills as fell runners are not into that sort of thing. |

| Speed session with CVFR in a park in Halifax. Bit of a random session but thought id try it out. I think they kinda made it up as they went along so we did various reps between about 1.20 and 5.40 in length. The recoveries were prob a bit long too so might try out a track session with a different club next week. On the plus side, it was all on grass. |

| I was going to something more intense but had been feeling proper rubbish all day so just went for a potter around some new footpaths in the dark. |

| Ran down the canal to Mytholmroyd then went on the CVFR night time fell run. Mostly on footpaths till we got to the fell proper then through the terrain. Decent pace but had to stop a few times to let people regroup. |
