Guisborough Rugby Club, straight up the stairs next to it, turn left for about a mile then follow the sign posts marked Cleveland Way.....Will be heading up for another dodge about soon, will give you a shout if you want a run out....Similarly will be doing some big session over Clay Bank to Lordstones with LOTS of climbing if you fancy that too

I picked it because I used to be able to see it out of my kitchen window. It was a favourite safe dog walk when the weather was bad too, the back route up via Ullock Pike. The fells on the doorstep are probably the only thing I miss about Cumbria. However, I do now have gas and interwebs that doesn't come down bail twine!

Had to pull out of the Hardmoors 55 in March, crap but I've done nowt for nearly 4 weeks due to a chest infection. Gutted but 100% sure that it's the right decision. Hopefully that'll be the end of the withdrawals this year

Just did my first run of the year after my 2 months winter sabbatical. 2.2 miles in just over 17 mins. It felt like my first ever time, its amazing how quickly the fitness goes after a few weeks of doing nothing.

you'll be surprised - nice rest up not always a bad thing. you might not fly around but you'd be ahead of the cut offs nee bother. if I'm not doing owt i'll come run the last 20-30 mile or so with ya.

Heading up Skiddaw in the morning, the gale force winds, driving rain, snow above 300m and sub zero temperatures should mimic the conditions in the Alps perfectly. Why oh why did I sign up to this :lol:
