Training Log Archive: Frodo

Up onto Crow Hill on the moor, back down the canal. Humid. Spent most of the time humming the Indiana Jones theme tune. All round great.

A route ive named the Castle Carr horseshoe. Down the canal, up through the woods to Scotland Quarries, Crow hill, Sheep stones edge, Tom Tittiman, High Brown Knoll, Whinney stones, around Warley moor reservoir and sailing club on the edge of Ogden, back through Jerusalem Woods and Booth. Bloody marvellous weather, warm sunny and a slight breeze.

Treated myself to a day off. Did plenty of wall squats and various other things in the gym including some time on the rowing machine.

Warm up 15 mins to the Bronte waterfalls then long warm down through the terrain from the Stoop back to Haworth. Gorgeous views and so nice to be out running on a warm evening with no-one for miles around.

60x30x15 Foxdals. Nearly fell asleep in the car listening to the radio in car before hand. Proper cream crackered after a draining day at work. Prob werent the best quality intervals but its definitely better than pottering along. Felt good for having done them afterwards.

After work banter in the gym. Tried out some weights on the quad bench but didnt like them.

Running post circuits. Another naff route from Airedale, running across soggy fields trying to find none existent footpaths. Ended up grinding out some miles on the roads aorund Silsden instead.

Warm up, jog between relay legs and warm down.

Bunny relay leg 1+3. Was sluggish on the first leg but got a shot of adrenaline on the last leg as was trying to catch the 2 teams in front. Sadly they were a bit too quick but we kept our 5th (?) place and got some chocolate as a reward. Kept the egg baton intact despite sliding down the finish chute on my arse at end of 1st leg, much to the amusement of the waiting runners.

Wadsworth Moor. Pleasant. Just missed the rain.
