  • Knackered my knee a bit in a ride over the weekend, frustrating start to the year.

    That training session sounds insane @nefarious . I did 8km with ~270m climb (didn't think it was much until I thought of it in the context of a bike ride - 32km with 1000m climb would be nuts) over christmas and that was tough enough!

  • Aye - worth noting the pace tho! Took me over 2 hours. Even one of our strongest runners was doing 11 min/miles average for the hill session. And if you take out the warm up, the hill session is 800m over 10km, lol.
    Need to get that steep hill fitness back - won't stand a chance in the Lakes or Scotland otherwise - and a session a week like that should do the trick!

  • steep hill fitness

    Something I definately lack! There seems a gradient past which running becomes ridiculously hard, and almost as slow as walking so you burn a lot of matches just to get to the top a few seconds quicker.
