Training Log Archive: Mowbs

Wasn't sure if I'd go today after D of E for past few days needed to do some revision. By 2:15 I was bored shitless, so decided to get off my arse and run. Went over to the Bells, then down cobbles to main road to the footpath I noticed the last time I ran that way. I ventured down there which took me over a load of fields and onto the Peover Golf Course. The footpath kinda disappeared, but I found my way onto a Lane then found another footpath, and after going across lots of fields littered with ugly huts monitoring the salt mines, I came to the road between lach dennis and the post office.

I then cut through past more abandoned stuff I never knew existed to Peter's Farm. Went round shakerley mere once to lengthen it out a bit and back home in just under 11km.

The fact I had no idea where to go at points and the numerous stiles slowed the average time, but felt like a good run overall.

Finished UK2. Packed up and by 12:30. Home around 3pm. Lots of rest needed.

3rd Day. Micro-navving exercises. Lovely walk up to 947m, shame visibility at top was only 20m. Came back down Devil's Kitchen which reminded me of the steps into Mordor off lord of the rings. Really enjoyed today.

2nd Day. Awful night sleep. Too dangerous to micro-navving on the tops, so dropped back to hut. Same walk as yesterday. Couldn't find anywhere sheltered for breakfast so cereal bars all the way.

D of E training first day.

Full Pack walk to first wild campsite. Wind and rain made it a nightmare, and when we got there, there was barely any flat or dry ground to pitch tents on.

Cheshire Cup Semi Final vs Altrincham Kersal

Lost 12-0. Good/ish/bad game... meh ground far too hard. Too hot to play rugby.

0-0 at half time ain't a bad effort.
