Ride from Lakeside to Gummers How car park. Was riding wils dads bike without adjusting, so saddle too high and for the first 1.5miles only the big ring. A lot of out of the saddle as it was easier. Thank god I could get the middle ring when we hit the hill! Still....would have been much nicer with the use of the smallest ring for that!

Run up to the top of Gummers How - tired. Great views from the top but had to keep moving as was a bit blustery!

Ride back from Gummers How to Lakeside. Much more fun riding down the hill :-)

Failed attempt at spectating the UTdH with Wil. Aimed to run over st sunday crag to grizedale tarn and back on the race route. Made it to 3/4 up st sunday where the path changes side of the hill and were faced with really strong wind and driving freezing rain. Decided we were not dressed for this/ it was going to take longer than the sole small packet of haribo we had with us would last, so retraced our steps.....played 'is that kim/shelf' looking out across the fields at patterdale from the white lion before heading to askham for the finish.

Awesome sprint finish from Kim and Shelf and Kim broke the 6hr barrier by 7s! Awesome on such a minging day!

Spain family 'xmas day' before wils parents andy and hazel go skiing

Run with Sally in the 'lovely' lakes weather! A very waterlogged Loughrigg, silverhowe, Loughrigg from Brathay. Legs a bit sore by the third uphill, probably something to do with lots of 400m! R glutes fine for about 1hr35 then not working quite as well. Good run with good company :-) then Bilbo's for lunch and a massive mug of tea!

Meant to do a gym session and a bit of a run but ran out of time with last minute bits and bobs and packing for the lakes!
