Mine was an early one too, before they closed the roads for the march. Ran between the two war memorials so a nice way to start and finish. Lovely clear roads and a very slow and satisfying plodโ˜บ

Loving that photo Jan, I'm thinking 'ooooh, nice jacket, I could do with one like that' and then I spot that colourful buff , in fact I need your whole running outfit - that I can see anyway! Hope your run was good. I think it's a really great idea, all that thinking time is very fitting on a such a day.

Ah.. you are kind fishypieface ๐Ÿ˜Š that jacket is just the thing to keep the wind out, mine is Ronhill the men's version (covers my derriรจre ๐Ÿ˜‰)....

I had the pic taken for the British Legion Poppy page.. an after run pic, but as I'm not on Facebook can't post it to them.
