"Whinfell Forest"

Last week saw the end of the summer holidays, and as usual we spent a weekend up in the Lake District with another couple of families. It was a great opportunity for some early morning runs around Whinfell Forest with the mist still hanging over the fells and with the sun just clearing the horizon. It was also good to discover some new trails as well as running some familiar ones.

The week was also important as Matt got his GCSE results and we were all really pleased he got the passes needed to go on to do A Levels.

With the track coach away tonight but with the session set I went to the local cemetery and ran a great set of 6 x 1k with a minutes recovery. It's a great place to train when you get used to your surroundings!

This coming weekend sees the final track and field fixture of the summer, so it's a last opportunity to end the summer with some good times.
