Running 2:47:22 [3] 18.07 mi (9:16 / mi) +604m 8:23 / mi
shoes: Brooks Ghost4 Aug 2012
Woke up with niggling right leg and a bit jaded post-party. Lots of snow on the ground. Headed out in trainers with the intention of seeing how leg was and doing a road run assuming all okay.
Took the road through Lodge Moor towards Redmires initially (past the car park for the SYO event at Rivelin!) and leg seemed okay, plus not too icy underfoot and the weather looked quite pleasant…..so changed plans and took the track up to Stanage. Nice up there but brutally strong and icy wind along Stanage Edge where progress was v slow across the snowy rocks. Got to Burbage Bridge having done 8 miles in 80 minutes!
Picked up a bit after that except back along Houndkirk into the fierce wind again, almost came to a total standstill a couple of times. Much milder lower down once into Porter Valley, tracks clear of snow and sheltered from the wind. Welcome by that stage! Leg okay running and seems no worse afterwards.
