I somehow lost or gained a kilometer, depending on how you look at it. Route planned was 5km according to Suunto mapping, Because of so many dogs in the park I cut the route short, out through car park instead of around the lake in the park. Yet, I got home and watch is now saying I ran 6km ... I clearly must have done a wrong turn somewhere, oh well not important since recovery food was bangers and mash with homemade chocolate brownies for pudding ;)

Managed to get out there before the storm hit. I spend a few minutes trying to figure out how I could carry enough apples - how many apples is enough - for something we could cook in the HQ when I still had about 5km to go. As yummy cooking apples had fallen onto the path and I could easily reach others still on the tree. I decided to go and do some dressage with Paddy instead. He cleared the two fallen trees without much effort, let's just say my attempt wasn't so elegant ;)

Looks like I forgot to log yesterday's run with you, so a double write up today, aren't you lucky ;)

Yesterday was 5km on the dot and the first proper autumn run, where the wind had a wee bite to it and it took some time to warm up. It's really the time of the year where it's a lottery on your layers, will you warm up on route, will wind be too cold, sweat in the uphill, then be too brr in the shade, long sleeve or short, wind breaker etc.

Today's run was back to glorious perfect running weather, views, hills, trails through woodland, gorse and nettles. Is it just me or have you noticed it too, nettles has been vicious this year? I've run in Spain, France,. Germany, Denmark, Belgium and the yUK this year. And everywhere tall, big "forest" of nettles and their season is just months on end. I can't remember them being this bad.

My mum told me a story about being at a very posh dinner and the lady next to her asked her if she played Gaalff. It took my mum a few moments to figure out what she was asked. So now I can't say it in any other way ;)

A quick road run, eewww, bit of a trail through a forest, yay, and then the last leg through a golf course, four!

I decided I needed some help, and put on Depeche Mode, instead of trying out this fella, before the upcoming hill. It's a steep wee bugger, some would call it a wall and that's includes me. The downhill on the other side was much easier, but these plastic sheets they use to stop trail corrosion, are lethal when exposed and wet. I was glad that I had a pulling Paddy, that I could use as an anchor to hold me upright a few times. Sorry, lad for yanking you lead, but I would have dropped hard if it wasn't for you.

Should have stuck to the 7km route, the last two was a bit hard. Not sure if it's because of lack of rest or food. Ignoring that eyelash I got in my eye for about 5km and just couldn't get it out, this was a brilliant run and a trail I would like to run again, with two fully working eyes ;)

Ee by gum that Yorkshire do scrub up nicely, eh lad. Sadly because of the need to earn a keep, I couldn't do a longer run today in Dogs own country.

Nearly had a dramatic fall, jumped over some nettles, from where a startled black rabbit took of from at speed, Paddy darted after the wild life, hit me as I landed, we just about managed to stay upright. Lucky he was running next to me at that moment, if he have had a step or two run up, I've been airborne.

Oops I took a wrong turn.

Set out to run 5-6km potentially nearly 7km if I felt like adding a bit extra and the rain stayed off. But ended up with 14km on a route that probably be the last time this year. As it is always rather boggy and even after the long dry spell here, the ground was rather heavy to run on. Wet peat and moss really do slow you down, all your spring just get soaked up in the bouncy ground. Also they are getting ready for the hunting season up there and when it is wet you can easy find knee deep bogs. Best time is after a long hard frost and a foot of snow, much easier to deal with.

But alas it was a grand day out, tapped the trig point, had a good natter in the rain with a hiker. Both in shorts and soaked to the bone but didn't care as we talked and watched the rain moving across the valley between us and Pendle Hill.

Well, nine of you lot believed in me, thanks, and I did it.

40+ stiles/gates, nettles, 10 bridges, uncountable amount of sheep, two herds of cows, 20 mini horses, 2 meal breaks, rain, sunshine, 676m up, 21.3 km (I had to do a double loop in the park to get the last 2km).

My longest run, jolly good time outside, perfect temperature, even when I was soaked.

Well, HQ going to get a new fridge fitted tomorrow. Cold food again at last \o/ So I was looking at the map and there's two options for the run back.

Same route as last week, 14km with 250m up, where there's hope I finally figure out where the correct stile is, so I don't have to climb over a stonewall "illegally" again.

Or a totally new route, it only shares about 3km with the other route, just under 20km with 450m up. And with the certain wrong turns and missed junction, I'm within a stones throw of the half marathon. The missing bit I can add in a park near the finishing line. It would nearly 5km over my previous longest run.

Perfect running temperatures too, though there's rain on the forecast, but at least I'll arrive were there is a warm shower, tea and cake!

What do you think I should do?

Same route as last week, 14km with 250m up, where there's hope I finally figure out where the correct stile is, so I don't have to climb over a stonewall "illegally" again.

Or a totally new route, it only shares about 3km with the other route, just under 20km with 450m up. And with the certain wrong turns and missed junction, I'm within a stones throw of the half marathon. The missing bit I can add in a park near the finishing line. It would nearly 5km over my previous longest run.

Perfect running temperatures too, though there's rain on the forecast, but at least I'll arrive were there is a warm shower, tea and cake!

What do you think I should do?

Well, HQ going to get a new fridge fitted tomorrow. Cold food again at last \o/ So I was looking at the map and there's two options for the run back.
