72/365 GWR 8 Mile route by Big Kev

72/365 GWR 8 Mile route by Big Kev at Garmin Connect - Details

A nice an relaxed club run to report on, as I have one eye on the challenge that is, the Forest of Dean Half Marathon. That said, with a bit of help and encouragement I was still able to push it along the Portway into a biting cold wind. It is so nice to do that, as Bridge Valley road appears on the horizon quicker than normal and then the ascent is over and done with before it plays on your mind too much.

It was also great to grab a pint and some food and catch up with friends while watching the football (wasn't really watching just being polite). The conversations on the run and at the club are all of a similar nature, with the spring marathon season upon us the questions normally lead to, what is your next big run and what time are you aiming for? Whilst these are predictable questions the avoidance techniques now applied to answering them are become far more sophisticated. The best example of this was to run into oncoming traffic to avoid answering! A little to cavalier for my liking.

Still planing for tomorrow has been organised and a lunch time run from the Gloucester office is on the cards.
