I have just got back from another morning in the Mountains. I have been reading a biography on the late George Mallory. He spent a lot of his time in Snowdonia and i wanted to go to the places where he climbed. Today i went to a place called Craig Yr Ysfa. Which is a [...]

I ain’t blogged for a few days but i have been active.  Just a few 2 or 3 milers up until yesterday where the wife and i went up Mount Snowdon. We have been up there a few times in the last few years but we did a different route on this one. Glorious weather [...]

My Mother and Father in-law are on holiday at the moment so we are having to look after their place. So i got up early this morning and combined getting the green bin out with a quick 3 miler. There must be other practical things i can do to make my runs more productive?

Went for a quick 4 miler this evening. The numbers arrived for a 10km race we have entered this Sunday which route is along a River bank in the shadow of a Castle near a local Sainsburys.

Despite not posting this weekend i have still been plodding away. I did a 3 miler on Saturday morning which i took very slow because of a pain in my hip (getting old).
Sunday was another bike effort i didn’t take the GPS but it was about 5 or 6 miles.
Monday press ups and sit ups [...]

My Juneathon Efforts for today. My daughter won her race and i entered the parents race.

I managed to do a quick 3 miler this afternoon followed by a load (i didn’t count) of press ups and sit ups.  My wife has a stinking cold at the moment inevitably this will transfer to me in the form of serious man flu.

I was hoping this GPS track shown on Google Earth would get across how steep the hills were where i did some running this afternoon but it looks like i just ran around a flat field. This quite small circular route is on top of a hill called Moel Fendig. It has 3 peaks on [...]

Back out into the hills this afternoon for a quick 3 miler. That’s all Juneathon is getting out of me today. On another note i got stopped by the Police today while driving out and about at work for a routine breathalyser test, i got zero of course but still felt quite nervous. So much [...]

The legs took a rest today and i drank far to much to wine and beer last night so i did 50 press ups and 50 sit ups, not all in one go.
