Had too many errands to run today, so my usual morning run got delayed until 4.30. This village is simply too small, been up and down all the back tenfoots and went as far as I possibly could in every direction until I ran out of a) Streetlights b) footpaths. I will definitely not be making a habit of running in the dark, nor on hard pavements. I usually run on trails and havent really subjected myself to bone jarring concrete until today. Not for me, I couldn't do any sort of speed because of all the direction changes. But, its done. 1 more run of w4 to do on wednesday. Onwards and upwards!

ooh how I sympathise having just come back from a (very) small town where all the roads rapidly ran out of street lights and pavement and the locals obeyed the 70 mph speed limit on narrow twisty roads that I'd felt wicked driving at 40 in daylight ...

Job done, rfawag! Sometimes you just have to push through and you did it and deserve extra brownie points! You'll appreciate the trails you usually run all the more now! Good luck.
