Evening Weight Training

Treadmill warm up

Was due to run a different 60-mile FKT this weekend with a good friend…alas he caught Covid a couple of weeks ago and on Monday we took the decision to postpone. That gave me the impetus to finally put this route together – I have been noodling on it for over a year.
We are blessed with gorgeous trails and many fine churches on the Essex/Suffolk border, and followers might have noticed how frequently I photograph both. I wanted to create a route that celebrated both and was accessible for many people at around 50k. 
I plotted this on Thursday evening, so no time to recce the ~10% of the route I was unfamiliar with to check for trails overgrown with brambles. All was fine – apart from mud and flood water. 
The route includes nine or ten miles of paved surfaces, far more than I had hoped but I wanted to avoid any out-and-back sections - and well – churches are rarely away from a road. While this makes shoe choice a real compromise in November it won’t be an issue in dryer seasons.
It was a pleasure to run today despite the weather…I’ll have a proper run at it come Spring.
