Long Peaks run with Caroline. Yorkshire Bridge, Win Hill, Ringing Rodger, Edale, Hollins Cross, Lose Hill, aborted ascent of Win again as Caroline unfortunately hit a pretty big wall. So we walked it in, to find a parking fine on the car (parking in a ‘red zone’ - need to retake my theory). Lots of people done!

Caroline now rather low on confidence with 3 Peak training - whoops. It was largely a grand day out with exceptionally warm temperatures and hazy sunshine, with a bit of a sad finish.

National XC at Harewood. Super low expectations after the training derailment in the last 3 weeks (curse how quickly you lose sharpness!).

I then compounded this with about two bottles of wine in Leeds with Caroline last night, so I tried to ‘relax and enjoy’

Relaxed isn’t the word I’d opt for - I rarely got into what felt like a good rhythm, and ended up about 90 seconds down on where I was a few weeks back (people wise). Not the way I wanted to end the XC season but bigger picture, it’s been a good one! Now to keep regaining the fitness and move into the next part of the year.

Canal from work at lunch. Barmy weather.

Jog with Caroline including 5 hill sprints.

Hilly 5 from home - tired from the session yesterday, but getting back into a semblance of a rhythm

Holmfirth club night, first in a while.

5x1km at Honley Library. Predictably, times were off the pace - but reasonably consistent and got it done.

Left quad sore afterwards - will monitor but think I’m just knackered

Run from home after work. Upper Cumberworth, Shepley, Shelley. Slower than it felt - might take a while to get back into this!
