We are in Wales at the minute so been doing a bit of hill running/crawling/stopping for breath an rolling back down!

Run cut short to 10 and a bit but I'm happy.....I won't be pulling up any trees next weekend but if I can beat last years 52 miles I'll be happy
Naffito Aug 2012 10:00pm, 7 Aug 2012 28 posts	Quote Pin Naffito I'm sure you will now you've experienced it As a spectator last year I think I'll do more miles this year, and consume less pizza We live in Scunthorpe so could of done the bridge as training or Lincoln hills....but I generally try to avoid hills. I get to the bottom, heave a big sigh, and look for a route around, worse still when we run together because it means jonnyk has to push 5 stone of children and pushchairs up the hills

I've not trained as much as last year so I last years 48 miles will not be getting beaten!Can't wait to run with the wife this year (naffito) but she has just informed me that it will be 27 degrees saturday day!Hopefully there will be a nice breeze.
