Running 1:40:00 [2]

Nice one with The MElk to finish the year. Good catch up and a nice bit of terrain bashing in and round Summer House Knott and High Dam. Was thinking about heading up the hills but was a yellow forecast and what not.

Saturday Dec 30, 2017 #

Running 31:00 [2] 6.5 km (4:46 / km) +150m 4:17 / km

Not in any good routines at the moment and so since the turkey race was cancelled just did a steady run. Need to give myself a slap.

Friday Dec 29, 2017 #

Running 1:30:00 [2] 12.7 km (7:05 / km) +772m 5:26 / km

Loads of snow fell overnight so thought I'd take to the fells for the hunt for some pow pow. Lovely conditions once up there, only one other guy on the top of the old man. Fell pretty hard on the way down on some slush under the snow but nothing to major to report apart from a bruised elbow.

Running 35:00 [2] 6.0 km (5:50 / km)

Orienteering 40:53 [4] 4.8 km (8:31 / km) +228m 6:53 / km

Turkey Race

Asthma was really bad today, so running was felt extremely laboured. Checked inhaler I used, expiry date was 2013 wooops.... just an old one I had in the car.

Orienteering awful for 50% of this - realised scale was 1:4000 when I got back no wonder why I overshot everything. The main problem stemmed from being really tired from asthma so I couldn't really concentrate I think though. Ended up racing with a 14 y old and Rob cos I kept missing everything...

Note

Bit of a lack of motivation today to be perfectly honest...

Running 31:00 [2] 7.0 km (4:26 / km)

First time I've run on Xmas day :O. Legs feeling good atm after lots of soft surface running. However, feeling a wee bit off recently as had a quite heavy night out on Saturday.

Strength & Conditioning 30:00 [1]

Sunday Dec 24, 2017 #

Running 33:00 [2] 7.0 km (4:43 / km)

Saturday Dec 23, 2017 #

Running 2:05:00 [2] 16.2 km (7:43 / km) +1200m 5:38 / km

Sik run with Ambleside AC boys - Striding Edge (bit sketchy) and Helvelyn. Pretty chill pace apart from a bit of an effort onto the ridge.

Friday Dec 22, 2017 #

Running 21:23 [2] 3.97 km (5:23 / km) +129m 4:38 / km

2 x 8 min [2 min] 4 x 4 min [1 min] on Birkrigg

Good session today compared to Tuesday when I forgot my inhaler - which felt like I was breathing out of a straw (altitude training). Faster paces and much more consistent, good buzz after finishing the session.

Running 14:02 [2] 2.7 km (5:12 / km) +43m 4:49 / km

Easy long run with Hollie. Newby bridge - Summerhouse Knott - High Dam - Rusland and back. Good chat so this run flew by. Really soft ground so nice on the legs.

Wednesday Dec 20, 2017 #

Running warm up/down 39:00 [2] 7.7 km (5:04 / km) +250m 4:21 / km

Warm up waiting for Hollie which happened to be in the wrong place.

Orienteering 49:00 [2] 6.2 km (7:54 / km) +100m 7:19 / km

Night-O on Esthwaite Intake pre running LOC club champs.

Brutal - Green and lots of windblown unmarked, 5m visibility in places due to mist, an average headtorch and no controls out made this very trick indeed. But all considering it wasn't that bad, definitely at least few "i'm in the vicinity of the control site, this will do" moments though.

Running 15:00 [2] 2.0 km (7:30 / km)

To the start.

5 PM

Running 35:00 [4] 9.2 km (3:48 / km) +120m 3:34 / km

4 x 8min [1min] - Decent enough session. Very slippy and boggy trails today, quite hard with next to no visibility. Very glad to get this done after dreading it all day.

Monday Dec 18, 2017 #

Running 43:00 [2] 8.8 km (4:53 / km) +254m 4:16 / km

Easy on Birkrigg, feeling alright. Standard tightness in right leg though.

Sunday Dec 17, 2017 #

Running 1:32:00 [2] 13.0 km (7:05 / km) +813m 5:23 / km

Felt rather alive on this run mainly due to the fact the wind on the ridge was bumming me so hard I was literally clinging on for dear life to try and stay upright. Just about managed to wing it though and not fall down to my death. Probably the second strongest wind I've ever felt apart from the time I and Jack W had to sit down to avoid being blown off the Old Man. Was also met by knee-high snow on the top and sheet ice coming down, nice to be home :)

Lower left back very tight (probs after long drive) so was very uncomfortable on the way up.

Really nice seat run with Ewan. Treated to a glorious sunset and great views from the crags. Feeling a lot better today and moving okay on the climbs :) Bit of a tempo up the crags.

Was suppose to be a decent pyramid session but when I started running 20s/k slower than Tuesday's session on shorter reps, knew it was time to stop. Ah well still got hr up! legs just wouldn't move I and think I just need a rest tomorrow to recharge.

Running 45:00 [2] 8.5 km (5:18 / km)

Cross training 1:30:00 [2]
ahr:136 max:148

60 mins in the morning and 30 mins in the evening. Watching Team Ingribritsen which is decent, still couldn't help myself from clockwatching a bit though, spinning is so dull. Managed to get my HR into zone 2 easier than other weeks now I've regained a little bit of cycling leg strength though.

Bit tired on the ups today and getting a fair bit of tightness/soreness in right calf/hip. Cross train tomorrow fo sho. Nice bit of coffee afterwards at the cafe.

5 x 6min [1min]

Good response from my legs/body today after being a bit apprehensive about doing a hard session and mainly because of spell of illness(felt a bit poo on friday). Times solid and same paces euoc boys were running on tue. Calf a bit sore after session though - hard packed ground after freezing temperature overnight. Happy with this :)

Running 10:00 [1]

Drills and strides

Running 35:00 [2] 7.5 km (4:40 / km) +100m 4:23 / km

Note

Saw the podiatrist today and got a cast of my foot to be sent off to sent off to get insoles (for a disgusting amount of money, like really filthy). It better be worth it. The podiatrist said I have a low arch profile and then a lot more detail I really can't remember (the important stuff) as it was all in the 'biomechanics of the foot' lingo. Basically whatever it was is it a bit more prominent in my right foot, hence the problems down my right side. FASIC shuts over Xmas for two weeks so it looks like I won't be getting them till after the new year. In the meantime, I'll keep stretching/rolling and probably introduce a few more x-training sessions in for the easy sessions if my calf continues to play up.

ahr:160

1 x 6min - Headtorch died so couldn't do the session - i am a mong. Used to just using a Petzl so completely forgot to charge it. Contemplated doing it on meadows but the running on hard surfaces is aggravating niggles down my right leg. Plus just running back from the kf i felt pretty tired and hr a bit higher than usual.
