Decided i needed a long run so headed off. Had to stop as I left the village to remove an album from my run list obviously uploaded the whole thing instead of one song 😳 and was off again. I ran into Cambridge and ended up with my longest run and hidden within that my fastest 5k and also fastest pace throughout. I tad chuffed. As I am not heroic i got the bus back, it was full of folk going about there day and i was dressed as sausage in my running things with crazy sweaty hair and a face so red even the sun had to up its game. I sat with my dignified glow until it was time to get off. Will head and buy wine soon huzzah for runnings and wine.

Thank you. I sometimes walk to town and as i started that direction thought rude not to try and knew there were bus stops on the way in case i gave up.

Yes, it's relatively flat apart from the NW corner. There's no way I'd be running up Castle Hill! I gained my thigh muscles cycling up the Madingley Road a few times a week (until someone showed me the flatter route past the tennis courts).

That’s valiant cycling 😁 the flat lands are great but the slightest slope leaves me feeling all in awe of folks that encounter hills on a daily basis. Wimpole tomorrow to pretend I am a rugged explorer hill type 😳

Great run today. I never thought of using a bus to get back- i usually do either a circuit or a 'there and back'. But it sounds a good idea to do different routes - i might try this when restrictions are lifted.

I took my mask and purse as into town is downhill back is uphill😬 but if It’s a longer run do just incase. Basically i am quite a lazybum

Not that lazy - you're miles ahead of me in LeJog! I've not run for a week.

I am sure life gets in the way of plans and we shall cross the finish line. I go out so much to avoid being home.
