Lakeland Training run




Training is generally going well for UTMB -I am getting all sorts of pbs and good times - mainly because the weather is good for off road runs, but it makes me feel better!
(Lyke Wake: 8:02, Osmotherley Phoenix 6:04 - 1st FV)
The only thing I am worried about is the lack of severe hill work.
So - today I met Jenny and Ken at 8.30 in Wilf's car park and we went and did the Kentmere horshoe plus a bit.
The weather was horrid at times - lots of wind, rain and mist, but we did get a little sunshine to warm the freezing hands.
We ran/climbed 15 miles which took 5 hours and was all hills - long ones - so excellent UTMB prep.
Am tired out now so will rest until the 10k road race handicap on Tuesday and then not do a lot until the Lakeland 50 on Saturday.
More after that!
