Enjoyable run this afternoon with with Mabel, and a friend who came over from Bala with her black lab. Four miles of mud, hills, gorse, stiles, and "technical" sections- all the things you need for a good run!

Legs are feeling it now though, I need to run more often.

Saturday morning BarkLife run with Mabel. Kept it shorter as I need to get off to work at a repair cafe.

Good run, pretty much no other human lifeforms to be seen, thankfully! Still pretty muddy underfoot though, despite several dry days.

Out with a friend this morning for a short but (very) sharp run up Breidden Hill to Rodney's Pillar. Only 2.6 miles, but the first mile and a bit involved a climb of just over 900 feet. Spectacular views, very cold but clear and blue skies.

Out for a run yesterday with Mabel at my favourite race of the year. The Myddle Muddle is a brilliant event held each year to raise money for Myddle primary school. Considering I hadn't run for over a week I was quite happy with my time of just over the hour for the 10km.

We climbed Rodney's pillar a few years ago - the way we went was quite steep I seem to recall

Well, after several weeks of psyching myself up to it, I made it out this morning for a run with Mabel. First run for nearly a year so just a short one. Felt good to be back out there though.

I think the last time I voluntarily went for a run was in 1987... The guy in the next room to me in my first year halls at Brighton Poly would go out some mornings before breakfast for, as he claimed, about a mile. So I went with him. Once. It was closer to three miles and he didn't slow down from his usual pace.

I'll quite happily walk for hours but running doesn't really work well for me.

Back out again early this morning for a 3 mile run over the hill with Mabel. Chilly and misty on the top, but brighter by the time I was heading back home. The long climb up to the top certainly knocked my pace down!
