Solid mileage!!! When is it?
Lothersdale Fell Race last night. Short and sharp, 5.8km/180m. Didn't warm up properly (thought I had, mind), and was hanging on for dear life. I had decided to just go out as hard as I could and to try and hang on for as long as possible. Legs were clearly still recovering from the weekend, and it wasn't quite the blaze of glory I had maybe hoped for, but decent enough.
My body is still in shock. Average hr or 174! Keen to see the results as I had to scarper home for dinner.

I've not many chances for long time on feet days ahead of Escape from GB so have been on a bit of a successive long/double/triple run day binge to build fatigue and a bit of mental resilience. It has been an interesting experience, the later runs usually delivering a low point that takes some getting through with the other side worth reaching. What has been surprising is the freshness 'reset' each new day brings, so sleep is defo in the plan for the 48hrs, even if it won't offer the same as a shorter nap.
280 miles on foot in April +1st May, happy with that.
