The last week of proper running was spent on Welsh coast paths and hills; none very impressive by BGR standards but great routes for sure, with spectacular cliffs, undulating rugged and varied paths and even one or two must-walk climbs. The longest run was only about 16 miles but it was all good. I got out nearly every day, in all weathers (ok, all of it good!) and even had a bit of compass work on one claggy day.
Now, with about 10 days to go I'm taking it easier on a narrow boat holiday, just a few flat towpath runs and some last minute planning.
Speaking of which, there are some team changes. Sadly Dave Deason and Mark Fowler, huge helps with previous training and my first attempt, have had to pull out, but in come Adrian Leigh and John Leech - I'm so grateful for folks stepping in to help; running and especially BG folk are fantastic eh?
Right. Just a bit of food shopping, book the van, and one last look at the maps, and we'll be ready for the off ....
