Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Left my Garmin at the inlaws, what did yours make the ups and downs Mac?

Dunno how to do all that fancy gubbins. Bear in mind, mine's a manual-wind version from 1872.

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow!!!

I spoke too soon about the legs being relatively unscathed. Can't walk today without feeling like I'm going to throw up! Particularly downhill or down steps!

My Garmin measured the ups and downs as just over 3000ft so I think it was pretty accurate. Got the distance as 13.22 which wasn't bad either.

Just go for it , take it steady.The first few miles probably won't be pleasant but your quads should relax and then you'll be OK.

I was wondering the same Boo.

I reckon if my legs have loosened up enough to let me walk down the hil from the station later without feeling like I'm going to hurl, I'll try a mini trot.

If not, I'm retreating to the sofa and staying there for the evening.

I'm suffering too! Can hardly walk the stairs without wincing! Thinking of a walk to the shops in a minute and see how my legs feel - then may be a very easy run later
