W1R2 - Cow 'Dung' all around

Ok, so the bridge was closed on R1 so today, I turned left and followed the river.....all fine......until I hit a shady cow dung boggy area......i was mid run #3 and lost my trainer in the dung! Got stuck for a few minutes which made me loose momentum. A shame as I didnt feel like I had completed the session really. I need to do the 3rd session to keep me on track.
