Seeing as you’re in Cumbria, find a nice scenic hill / fell.

One mile slow warm up jog beforehand, then ten one minute sprints up the hill / walk down.

Repeat ten times and warm down with a slow one mile jog on the way home.



Much better than doing HIT in the gym

I’d normally agree however we’re just awaiting wintery weather so I’ll pass! Warm gym with a bike and lots of women in tight gym leggings.

It hurts likes hell for the first month, but it’s a great way of exercising if you’re pushed for time too.

I started fell walking about too on weekends so that's helping. Now to just fix my considerable food intake.

Great time of year if you’ve got the right gear, as there’s hardly any tourists about.

Pre kids Ioved fell walking in the Winter - Helvelyn being my favourite.

Bleak and beautiful.

It is indeed! Making the most of my doorstep. Did Langdale Pikes last weekend, clocked in 30k steps on my FitBit.

Langdale Pikes is a cracker.

Put Scafell, Coniston Old Man and Great Gable on your list too.

I'm really enjoying my interval in the gym atm, just nice to mix it up.

I prefer doing the hill runs up the side of an old castle just near mine, but it's a no go at this time of year as I'd be sliding all over the place. When I go on my runs I always incorporate hill sprints but just not to the intensity that I do when I'm up there.

Done them all previously but they're on the list again! Figure I may as well enjoy losing some chunk with nice views and Instagram likes.

I do two sessions a week, to compliment my general running.

At the end of each month I add another sprint on, rinse and repeat.

My aim is to hit twenty, I’m up to 15 sprints each session now.

I hated it start with, but really enjoy it now !

Staying out by Buttermere ( Kirkstile Inn ) at the beginning of June for 3 nights, with the aim of doing a few that I’ve never done before - got a list of some real gooduns.

Really looking forward to it

Let me know how you get on mate. I'll tell you if I go up any cool ones in the near future.

gunna start this when weathers abit better...

So sprint for a whole minute? Then walk back to start of sprint.. 10x

That’s it, plus a really slow mile jog to warm up and another slow mile after to warm down.

Each minute up is around a a tenth of a mile.

It’ll hurt like hell to start with, but
as you get fitter you can tag more sprints on.

Didn't know everton was playing today, so I forced myself to go out on the trail and do 17mi. Usually these long runs are a slog, especially the last 4-5 miles however it was snowing kinda heavily toward the end, and the whole trail was covered nicely in about 1/4in of snow. I had one of those commune w/ nature/life is good moments.
