Hi everyone,

W5R3 done and dusted. Slight knee jarring grrrrr. Definitely need new shoes!!! Gait checking at a running specialist shop on Wednesday)

New running route today along the Forth at Bo'ness whilst visiting family.

Here's the curious thing. My normal running route is along the coast at Bowness on Solway. I've also run alongside the lake at Bowness on Windermere visiting friends.

Does anyone run in any other place in UK called Bowness or similar.

Or maybe ran in places with similar names. Possibly Newcastle-upon-Tyne and have run at Newcastle under Lyme. Or Richmond in Yorkshire and Richmond in Surrey.

Post run philosophy or 'Who wants to be a millionaire' trivia.

Enjoy your Sunday runs everyone 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Gait analysis/new shoes made all the difference to me!

Manchester has an overspill estate which has all the roads named after Lake District places. I could go up there and run a big loop along Bowness Road and Windermere Road. 🤣

I guess not as pretty as running through the real Windermere and Bowness

Nope. Lots of solidly-built 1950s council houses. Originally that land was planned to be a reservoir.
