Well the 2nd run was definitely easier than the 1st.

Apart from getting locked in the car park of the Rugby Club where I did the run, it was great fun, although still challenging.

Looking forward to run 3 on Friday.

Well done!! :-)

Keep it up Slideman. Still proud of you!

Just registered us both for the 5K in July, so there's a great motivation :-D

So how did you get out of the carpark? Come on... we want the details!

Enjoy your next run. :-)

So does your name suggest you are a musician by any chance?

Oops, a bit late in replying. Still, better late than never... :-)

Well spotted... but no, I'm not a practicising musician, though I enjoy listening to all sorts, from Donizetti to Led Zep. I chose the name as I like the upbeat idea (plus living in Italy, I hear it used in various situations, not just limited to music).

Hope to read about your next successful week soon.

Or are you still in the carpark?!

Running the 5k together sounds good. :)

Thanks guys. Ok, I had to drive across two very uneven fields until I found a private lane with a barrier that I was able to sneakily open and escape! Phew....

Good job it wasn't boggy - getting stuck would have been very embarrassing! :)

That was my worry! I could've been writing this message from a boggy field in the middle of Ross on Wye whilst huddled up in my car in my running gear, waiting to be released sometime in the morning!! :-)
