LE JOG

[Nigel]

Something's happening with LE JOG; I find myself planning to visit some of these locations in the 3D world.

Me too. Weird.

Second Life has nothing on Le Jog.

18th January 2010. Fifth day running in a row. I really needed a rest today, but the weather was mild, and that Guinness settled well. And I had my running kit ready, just in case.

4.27 miles from Trewithian into Portloe, ranked by John Betjeman as one of the “least spoiled and most impressive” of Cornwall’s fishing villages. Its snug berth in an inlet between steep cliffs has kept 20th-century intrusions at bay, and the cluster of white cottages behind the harbour look much as they would have done 200 years ago when it was a pilchard-fishing port. Today, three boats still fish for crab and lobster.

Film-makers are regularly seduced by its quaintness and it has doubled up as a Mediterranean (Forever England) and an Irish village (Irish Jam) in its cinematic career, while on television it has starred in both Wild West and The Camomile Lawn.

January to date 66.14 miles
2010 to date 66.14 miles
