You can't disagree with me Sweder, people are building shrines to me in Leeds. Glaconman's running nirvana is assured, but you still have some work to do.

Which coincidentally ( Rolleyes ) is my track du jour. On America's latest album (their first in yonks) is a delightfully catchy little ditty called Work To Do, which includes the incredibly appropriate lyrics for today's lung-busting and embarassingly difficult hill climb:

Well it didn’t go down quite the way we planned it,
You made mistakes, took some things for granted,
We’ve come this far we’ve got to see it through,

And if we’re gonna make it baby,
If we’re gonna make it baby,
We’ve still got some work to do.


Yup. A rough but entirely uphill 5km kicked off my Point to Pinnacle campaign this morning. For the moment I'm ignoring speed and time and concentrating instead on just covering some territory with an emphasis on hills. If I'm to tackle this mountain in November I have to get times and pace out of my head and fully focus on altitude, working up to a half marathon at an average 6% gradient. Eek

Hence the appropriateness of the song from America. I really do still have a helluva lot of work to do.

But I've started.

Aaargh - Frankie's eaten my incense again ... bad hyena! :mad:
