This one is for Irishprincess and everyone else who loves this city. Do you recognise it? I just had to take a photo of the footsteps and I tried mapping the walk of the crescent with my mum, but we must have walked in straight lines rather than a curve! I was hoping to make a daisy using the curve as a petal, but needed an opposite curve too! Happy running to you all! ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿป

Bath is a tremendously pretty city! We spent fours years backwards and forwards as my son completed his first degree and masters degree there. I know those land marks well! If Im not mistaken thats the Abbey, traditional setting for the uni's graduation ceremonies , absolutely beautiful! Thanks for the memories Flossie๐ŸŽ“

Ooooo. Way to go! There are one or two hills that are hopefully not on the route? ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

My sister has run it and assures me it is flatter than the routes I normally run. Don't think there are any horrible surprises there...just the distance! Have run 10 miles a few times so just another 3 to add on๐Ÿ˜ฎ! Slowly but surely!๐Ÿ™‚

Love Bath. Many years ago I was lucky enough to study at the University on Claverton Down and still have very fond memories.

Started something of a family tradition - my cousin and my son both followed on and now I have a nephew in his second year there!

Yes we did! The Christmas market is fab. The decorations are beautiful too, especially at night/when it gets dark. Enjoy your little mooch! :)
