Ooh that's exciting; I couldn't see you on 'the list' - which one are running?

Milton Keynes - yes exciting! I am very impatient to get going... :)

It's my sort of home town, so it's nice to go and run there - and some of my family still live in MK. I also did my first HM there in December last year, and I really enjoyed it!

Edit: I was just reading your other posts - do you live round Northampton way?

I know it well! It looks really good with some lovely canal side route to carry you home😊

Only 3 more sleeps... And you'll be off, good luck☘

So where do these hills run to? Do they have special running events for them or am I at risk of finding my local hill lined up alongside me at the start of my next HM?   ;)

I'd read that one.  Good into it!   Hills increase your lung power as well as strengthening legs,  shoulders, arms and core. The more you do them the less scarey they are.  I have The Cardiac Hill race coming up ☺

It's a good read ... I need to go run them now and It's on the diary for Tuesday!

Is that a real race .. the cardiac hill ... Eek , going to take a peak😱... Happy training!
