An unscheduled run

I had to take my car to a garage this morning, about 3 miles away.

Since my wife wouldn’t be able to fetch me for 2 hours, I decided I’d walk back on the back roads, especially as the weather is so glorious

Then - another change of plan. Why not run back? I hit a right b*gger of a hill at 2km which is coming off my Christmas card list. But so glad to have another local run under my belt

That's a beautiful part of the world, did you run back to collect the car too?

Car should be ready “directly” but I’ll get a lift back!

How exciting! I love when running somewhere is useful, could do without that hill though
