Another impossible thing

Last year I went through the C25K program on the Camel Trail in North Cornwall. Flat, well drained and no cars - ideal.

As I struggled along like a partially destroyed insect I would watch the gazelles stride off from Wadebridge to Padstow.

I’ll never do that, I thought.

Well, today I did. At 8.35km not the longest run I’ve done, but a huge milestone for me.

What’s the next impossible thing? There and back?

Or hire a push bike and cycle back?! (You could paddle a bit and call it a triathlon 😁) Fantastic, and it's such a scenic trail too, what a wonderful milestone 👏
