A whole year in half an hour

Was a bit sad not to have done a festive run map like Oldfloss , as per IannodaTruffe 's challenge (I found a route, but then I got the lurgy before leaving for Christmas) and even sadder not to have found anything like HeadInTheClouds 's anatomical diagrams (well, there is something, but it's a bit cubist!). But this route was irresistible :)

Longer warmup to get to the start and then I had to tram it back home but it was a great run along quiet hungover streets. Achy, but in a good way, already.

Happy New Year!

A brilliant effort.

Why thank you :D

I would not have thought to do it had you not set the challenge. But now it's yet another reason to head out (I know, we shouldn't need more reasons than just to run...), to see what shapes are hidden in the streets - well, actually, getting to know our locale is a great reason for running!

I think we have a recurring theme here.......Valentine's Day, Easter, Royal Weddings, visits from dubious foreign presidents, Summer Solstice, The World Cup.....oh the list goes on and on and on.......

heh, you've already got me looking for hearts in the streets now ... I've got 6 weeks to find one! Not sure about some of the other occasions...!
