Just did a gentle mile (down to the station) yesterday morning, but today I did a 5 mile slowish recovery run off the train on the way home (Ben Rhyding and over Denton Bridge). My calves were/are still feeling stiff and also the bottom of my hamstrings. No more than should be expected though.
Only worked a half-day today as the afternoon was my eldest's birthday party. Looking after a dozen 10-year-olds in Pizza Express was quite a challenge but great fun!
Also noticed today that I am still sitting on top of the Ilkley Harriers leage. This is a handicapped points system organised by my club. Just a little fun really, and I'm only there as I've done more races than most other people, but still feel very proud!. It is calculated by...

After 8 races, Paul O'Looney narrowly retains the lead from new challenger Richard Reeve, with Richard leading the Road competition..."
The latest position is always recorded at http://www.ilkleyharriers.co.uk/index.php?page=league, but as I may not be at the head of the league again, the today's position is held at http://www.ilkleyharriers.co.uk/assets/rl/2009-8.pdf.
