I've done 6 miles this afternoon and it was fucking hot.I thought I was going to die half way up Greenbank Road. I did it in 1 hour and that's quick enough for me. Most people think they are going to die up Greenbank Road, and they aren't even running  |

It was immensely hot, and i apparently got a bit shouty with my self encouragement in the last 5 mins Fine effort POOB  Don't have too much to contribute to this running thread since my activity tends to either be squash or circuit training or speed/endurance training for squash. So no real distances covered as such. Used to run cross-country in my school days so I still have a decent engine but grinding out the hard miles and mixing it with squash doesn't work for me anymore  Good luck to all though, some fine work going on here, TP would be proud of all of you |

I've just done 6 1/2 miles and i feel quite good,much better than yesterday.
Incidentally if anyone in Chell,Smallthorne,Norton,Ball Green or Knypersley think they saw some sort of bi-pedal ape shuffling along don't worry,it was just me.

A gentle 3km running and an easy 5km on the rowing machine for me. wayyyy too hot! Is that the Concept 2 rower POOB? I really got in to that stuff about 3 years ago when by knee was bad but now it is ok again I never get on one. I followed a training program from the website for a while, a mixture of speed and endurance intervals coupled with a few long rows. I got pretty good if I do say so myself  |

Just banged out 18 miles in 2 hr 40 mins, a cracking morning for an early run around the countryside, lovely. well done northwich that's a great effort, I can remember when I would be reluctant to go out in such high temperatures but as long as you get plenty of water down yer in the couple of hours before your run and if possible during, then you will be ok |
