The best cross-training around...?

Back from another run on the moors in a rare day of good weather. I have recently got back into fell-running (am still FAR from running the uphills but one gets there eventually), and had forgotten what a great all purpose work out it is. Coming down the steep grassy slopes that are around Dovestones is great for the arms and core as well as the legs - not to mention the balance that is needed to hop around the innumerable peat bogs in these parts.....and the jumping between dry parts is good for muscle recruitment.

As mentioned in the last blog - I am making a conscious effort to get fitter and stronger; slowly I think it's starting to show benefits...
