Saturday 25th September
A beautiful day this morning.
Full sun, but quite cold only 6 degrees at 10 ish when I set off.
Usual run at the moment over Musburry Heights onto the Rossendale way, then up towards the Tor.
From here turn right and head up towards the next valley.
From the top here looking onto 'Alden Ratchers' the next valley, it's like a lost world.
An amazing place with steep sides and waterfalls.
Same run as last week, except where it took me 45 mins to get to this side of Alden Ratchers with Nick and Dave today I was there in 35 mins. This meant I had another 10mins to get to the top of Bull Hill.
Once there in 45mins approx I turned around and headed home the same way.
Watch says - 83 mins, Avg HR 146, Max HR 161, Cals 984 about 10 miles
Fantastic run!

Thursday 23rd September
Badminton tonight.
Really good session, lots of running and lots of fun!
Really enjoyable.
Approximately 3 miles running.
Friday will be a rest day.
Hope to run with the girls early doors Saturday am, then back home and then off for a long run over Musburry Heights along the Rossendale Way, see where we get to. It would be nice to climb up on to the moors leading to Peel Tower - we'll see.

Monday 20th September
Weather still iffy at the moment, plenty of rain about and the nights are getting dark quick.
Went for a run around the roads tonight.
Up Fielding lane to Pothouse lane along Pothouse lane into the dip and back to Fielding Lane, up to the top along Cross edge past the golf club to where the Red Lion used to be, back down to Pothouse lane, back up Fielding Lane then home.
Pretty quick in places, very much a tempo run.
Felt good even after the exercions of a 10 miler in terrible weather yesterday.
Watch says - 46 mins, Avg HR 141, Max HR 157, Cals 512.
About 5.5 miles, maybe 6 and 620 ft of climbing.

Sunday 19th September
Arranged with Nick and Dave to run today. Only time available was 2.00pm, middle of the day, didn't go down too well. Agreed to run on Saturday am for bigish run.
Anyway we met at Clough Head Car Park at 2.00pm. It had rained all through Saturday night and all Sunday. It was V wet. Set off from the usual place, along the usual route, around Musburry valley, following the Rossendale Way. Very wet, streams very fast, absolutely soaked, even with waterproofs on! When we went up the climb where we normally turn left to go to Tor Hill we went right, tussocky grass everywhere horrible running. When we got through this though the next valley was stunning! Ran through this for a bit. Bull Hill was infront and you could make out Peel Tower through the mist. After 45 - 50 mins I turned round and headed home leaving Nick and Dave to continue exploring. From what I saw a stunning place and one that I will be returning to very soon. Next Saturday!
Returned the way I came in, ran hard and pretty fast in difficult conditions. Felt great, strong, breathing really good. A good 10 mile run. about 2,500ft.
Watch says - 83mins, Avg HR 145, Max HR 162, Cals 972.
BW exercises x2 sets of 60 PUps. After a great start these have dwindled off this week. Not helped with a few aches in my right knee. See how we get on next week.
Totals for the week that was Running - 30+ miles
PUps - 786
SUps - 566

Saturday 18th September
Clare has gone out for the day to Manchester with the girls for a 40th Bday.
Me and our girls went for a walk from Clough Head car park passed the reservoirs and up to the chimney. Back down the steep ramp and back home. A lovely walk that R, H and H really enjoyed - me to! About 3 miles.
Running at 2pm tomorrow with Nick and Dave. Probably the same route as last week, may go over the ridge and see if we can see Peel tower etc over there.
