An old “favourite”

I got a bit bored with my usual route, so pulled this one out of the back of the drawer.

It was a run I used to do during lockdown in 2020 as it’s less than an hour. 30 minutes steep uphill and 20 minutes glorious back downhill. Wonderful hill views.

The shins and quads had a word with me about it later

Fantastic stuff HeavyFoot 👍, that's actually what I'd consider properly hilly in terms of overall % gradient. 😀

That elevation profile is pretty hairy, but at least it's downhill for the second
