Now I know what I don't like – Week ending 13 April 2014
Bit of a mixed week with the Calderdale Hike being a 22 mile DNF, I know at least what sort of races I want to do.
Training
Between Ultras – Week ending 6th April 2014
Following last week’s unexpected success in the Oldham Way Ultra, I was planning on a week recovery but I’ve felt stronger than I’ve done in a while.
Skiing downhill is training right? – Week ending 23rd March 2014
No real chance of any running other than a glimpse of what running at 5500ft altitude and a sharp climb does to the lungs while on holiday.
Training? Draining more like – Week ending 16th March 2014

So this was the week I’d been building up to since November. The Grizzly Race was upon us.
The need for speeeeed – Week ending 2nd March 2014
I’d decided a while back that even though I might not have needed it exactly, I was going to have two easy weeks leading up to The Grizzly with one blast around Parkrun being the only significant effort in that time.
All downhill from here – Week ending 23rd Feb 2014
That’s about it for this phase of training as I plan to ease down a bit now in prep for my first A race of the year – The Grizzly.
The whopper – Week ending 16th Feb 2014
After feeling a bit fatigued last week I must say I felt a lot stronger this week and I’ve actually just run my biggest week mileage wise since I started running.
A windy finish – Week ending 9th Feb 2014
I finally made the jump this week and got round to officially joining Meltham AC and ground out some more miles.
A much needed easy week was supposed to lead up to a race on Sunday but that didn’t happen.
