Quite happy with January’s mileage 192 miles, 7 behind what i was doing for the himalaya’s with 6 months to go before the Lakeland100.
Spend most of this evening in the kitchen making Chicken in a white wine sauce with asparagus and baby pots for Lucinda and a curry for me.
Up early to a couple of inch of snow, but apparently the hexhamshire hobble is still on, so it should be a great mornings fell running ;)
Tonight’s curry, (curry 6) was chicken with vindaloo spices made with cider vinger and fresh basil, very yummy! ;)
Tonights curry is a Bangladeshi chicken korma. Yum yum.
