| wrapped up warm and puntered down to endcliffe park to meet up with intervals people (+ pay Littlebit)
did warm up and stretching with group. session was pile-offs (basically a sprint relay), so i tagged on to LittleBit and ran when she did until she started pushing it to catch people, then I continued round the loop without breaks just cruising at a low speed. did warm down and stretching with group and puntered back up the hill home with LittleBit. felt pretty much ok, not completely recovered don't think, but close. will have a gentle session in the pool tomorrow and see how I feel for Saturday I think. | ||

Set off on V.Long with MikeS OJ Al Little Rob and Camel but after 15minutes the noping sole on my shoe decided, oo actually I don't like this shoe anymore i'm gonna piss off. so with one shoe in tact and the other's sole flopping off by the tip of my toes I decided I should head back...

| shoes: Adidas Swoop II | ||
| ShUOC Fell run: Hunters Bar to bridge at Porters Clough and back
tried eating gel few mins before started to see how my body copes to them...was a bad idea, stomach felt really bad all the way. set off quick with Neil, although part way up the hill, he turned around a corner and completely vanished (it turns out he ran off up the road/track thing where we were meant to turn up the footpath in the valley), so was on my own for most of the course after that, settled into a comfortable steady pace, stomach was annoying me a fair bit and generally felt tired. was pretty steady all the way down hill, not under any pressure until half way through endcliffe park when I casually glanced behind and saw something bright red and knew Neil had appeared, so forced an increse in pace to hold him off then realized he had gone completely wrong anyway. ok route, not really fell run though. could be useful as a time trial? | ||

| another long run on the hills, perfect weather for it...beautifully clear, not hot but not cold either. good route: hagg farm -> through woods, along ridge to Winhill Pike -> down accross Ladybower, around roads to northern bridge where there was a nice kendel mint cake stop with Gareth. Ladybower -> up Crook Hill -> right along ridge until up behind Hagg Farm then dropped in through wood.
Ran with Rhodri until Ladybower, and Magic for the whole route, nice steady pace, was really enjoyable. | ||

| Running 48:50 [2] | ||
| ahr:152 max:194 shoes: Asics GT-2120 | ||
| felt really good today apart from tight calves (will give 'em a bit of massage later)
trotted down to endcliffe park for ShUOC intervals, arrived as they were finishing the first set, ran around the field gently as they did the second. Joined in on the final set: 2 sides/ 30sec rec; 2 sides/ 30sec rec/ full lap. managed to run a lot faster than expected, felt like I had no speed in my legs at all, but could do one set alright. wouldn't of been able to do three though. warmed down with everyone else, then continued along endcliffe park and turned up hill at the end, up to Fullwood road. Along Fullwood road past Ranmoor into Broomhill and down to flat. was good to get out and stretch my legs | ||
| Massage/Stretching 20:00 [0] | ||
| stretched out calves then did massage on each. was tightest on outside of muscle, and hurt most there...dunno if thats anything significant. Hopefully won't be tight for training at the weekend. | ||
