Long slow distance run with Pete and Jo from park and ride at Odd Down in Bath. Headed through Limpley Stoke and Hinton Charterhouse. I don't pretend I know in detail where we went, or how far or the time.
Pete and Jo have been doing lots of this both running and walking, discovering new parts of the countryside. Very nice typically English countryside a shame a bit misty for most of the run but sun came out at the end. Knees a bit sore later in the run but ok afterwards. A long time since I have run this far. Really the equivalent of a CW leg

Swineford -standard route to Round Hill quite quick,(3350) then second loop from North Stoke to Golf Course and Upton Cheyney. Seems long time since I have run this far, real plod later on. Knackered came home and had a kip.
Have run this route much quicker but will worry about times in the spring

Warm up and run back to download

BAOC Barossa - wood a joy to run in on a sunny day - very enjoyable course perhaps not very hard but a good run. No evidence of heavy legs as previous races and spiking the controls today

BOK run from the cottage -felt very flat tonight-don't know why, perhaps guilty of not trying hard enough. Should perhaps have chased Paul. Legs not in great shape

Standard Purdown run. Lovely sunny day felt very sluggish but kept going. A guy ran straight passed me on the second hill. As legs were heavy time not bad but need to be careful not to be greedy in the next few weeks. That said time not too bad

C • summer series..... 3

Warm up and run back from finish

SBOC Event at Whiteford Burrows -love being in the Gower and the sand dunes on a nice day. Good course and did struggle a bit with the running. Poor navigationally missed lots of controls -really a continuation of the army Weds experience too many errors. Not really sure why I am struggling.
