Another long fell run out with Dad and David. Started off at the Kirkstile, then went up and over the Hen Comb ridge, then up the old pack horse road, then we went up on to Flouten Cop. Then my dad went back down Mosedale. Me and David carried on down to Buttermere and then round the bottom of Rannerdale. Then we finished with a swim in Crummock. Really nice run and felt strong all the way.

Long run back from Crummock with dad. Went over Loweswater fell and Fellbarrow. Then down through Brandlingill and then back through the fields to Town. Felt good all the way but the heat but the road section towards the end made it tough.

Was in a blow up boat on the lake and it was really windy and I got flipped out of the boat, tried to swim after it but the wind caught it and took it off down the lake. Watched it hit the shore at one of the ends. So went to get it. Ran at a threshold pace, good session but not planned.

Latrigg evening event. Asked roger to print me a brown only map. Was really good, concentrated on reading my control descriptions, reading contours well and direction out of the control with compass. Felt like I did well and I ended up getting the fastest time by one second.

Run with dad up Rannerdale and then up Rannerdale Knott and down back to the car.

Had a good nights sleep. Feeling much better but having a rest day to fully recover.

Nice easy run. Did my 7km loop up the river. Met Rob outside his house halfway round and ran up the road for abit with him. Then Cut through fields back to town. Felt ok during the run. Within a hour of getting back I felt awful and spent the rest of the day on the sofa.
