Peak running

My run this afternoon was one of those that just makes you feel 'YES!' The training is paying off and the good conditions underfoot enabled me to do a PB on the Whitescar, Froggat, Curbar, Baslow Edge 14km circuit of 1 hr 30 mins. I knocked 6 minutes off my last recorded run around this particular circuit which was in 2006 when I considered myself pretty fit. Today, I finished the undulating circuit feeling strong and could have carried on. I had no aches or pains, no discomfort, despite having pushed hard, so time to crank up the distance with hopefully a longer run either tomorrow or Friday before we leave the Peak District on Saturday.

Taa Doug! I am chuffed to bits! It's about time I really started to feel good about my running and feel like I am making progress. Need to keep the momentum going when I get back home next week.
