Note to self....

- We've had a lot of rain recently ... trails may be muddy

- The Somerset levels are flat and "level"

- Well done me for wearing my waterproof socks

- Well done me for actually wearing my trail shoes

:-)

Slip sliding away, slip sliding awayyyyyy, you know the nearer your destination the more you’re slip sliding away 😁👍

Well done! Another fun run! Oh those shoes though 🙈😤. They’ll dry out in the sun 😁

Bet it was big fun! 👍

Ha ha, some of the "trails" around Cambridge are like that, I was in over my ankles the other day! Waterproof socks? How do they work then? Do they work?
