LE JOG

[Nigel]

Picked it up early this morning. Heavy rain was forecast, but I was blessed with a blue slot of sky.

Legs were heavy, shoes spent all morning caking in greasy mud, and a cold reduced me to a snot-dribbling lunatic for nearly all of the 5.80 miles covered. In short, it was bliss.

On from Great Tree, through No Man's Land and Widegates to find a suitable dossing place around a mile short of Polbathic.

Plymouth Sound is just in sight now, but in contrast with Julie's endeavours on Isambard Kingdom Brunel's Bridge a week or so ago, I'll be taking the Torpoint Ferry across the ria. That's likely a few days ahead yet (more lager may be implicated this evening).

Rest assured, that although I'm favouring the ferry crossing into Devon, I'll make sure to run around the deck to make up the mileage.

February to date: 22.11 miles
February days run: 4

2010 to date: 117.49 miles
2010 days run: 21
Days since last injury: 14 (phew!)
