The OMM approaches

As a transgression from the last few posts on Digital Media, fell running.

Only a few weeks to go now till the OMM event and I can't wait to get over there and get thoroughly knackered, wet and miserable.

The training to date has continued to go well and I am currently trying shake off a seasonal cold, but even that didn't stop me fitting a 12km run along the edges (Froggatt, Curbar and Baslow) on Sunday.

I've invested in some new shoes from Accelerate as the New Balance M800's I've been running in over the summer occasionally let me down in wet open fell conditions, which are exactly the conditions I am expecting in Borrowdale in a few weeks.

Now its just a matter of some more light training, about a 25km run this weekend in Edale I think and then a much lighter weekend run the following weekend and we are there!

I'm looking forward to a challenging few days back in the Lakes, in an area I infrequently visit.

Avoiding injury and illness are my tasks now . . .
