"Last Days of Summer"

It may have been the wettest summer on record, but last night I took the chance for one of those late summer evening mid week runs thinking that it may be the last one before the seasons change. Through Bollington and up Kerridge Ridge to White Nancy with the setting sun illuminating Rainow Village. Magic!

"Rufford Abbey"

It's often those runs that you start off not knowing where you are going in a place you haven't visited before that turn out to be the ones you really remember. That happened this week during a family stay in Sherwood Forest where an early morning run through a country park led straight into the courtyard of what turned out to be Rufford Abbey a13th century monastry. After that first run the remainder of the holiday was made up of sessions in and through the woods which were fantastic!

"Sale Sizzler 2 - The Olympian 5k"

A second run at this race in three weeks but this time only managing a 21.59. A great opportunity to see some  former Olympians including Ron Hill.(pictured at the start in the red and white hooped vest).

"London 2012"

What a fantastic two weeks of sport! We spent eight days there including "Super Saturday" with Jess, Mo and Greg,.Unbelievable!
