A Day in the Company of the Old Man

Not my Old Man - soon we'll be marking the thirtieth anniversary of his demise - but this distinguished gentleman:




Coniston Old Man - 803 metres of tough old mountain. Find out more about my day.

This was a substitute for 30 minutes running. I was up there for nearly seven hours and my knees are killing me. How many other running sessions was it worth?

Backsliding

I woke up feeling like shit today. Sore throat, clogged sinuses, no voice.

So I didn't run. I didn't run on Wednesday either, seeing as when I went to set off for Palmer Park at 5.30 it was blowing an blizzard outside. With five weeks to go before a half marathong though, I don't want to get right out of it.

So I went swimming. Forty lengths of the Central Pool - a personal best. I'm no great swimmer so it took a long time but I'm sure it must have done me some good!
