Back on the road again

After nearly 2 weeks finally got those running shoes back on. A bout of "flu like illness" slowed me down nearly to a standstill coming back from hol's, I certainly couldn't make it out for a jog, so nice to get out tonight with a group from the Harriers.
It feels like the nights are drawing in a bit, so not so many Tuesday nights out of town/off road left.
Nigel led us a steady pace up Owler Park Road, through Woods, Nesfield down to Addingham over the bridge then round and about and up the very big hill to Addingham Moorside before "contouring" back to Ilkley.
Whilst a steady group tonight it wasn't steady enough for some of us including me - I really struggled the last bit so will put this down as a "recovery run". Hopefully it was post viral and it won't take me yonks to get back to how I was running before the hols.
The watch says - 15.9km, 1hr 35min, 1500ft of up, and 1500 calories - I think I'll have a beer
