It was a nice night and I wanted to get out for a small run, here is what happened!

The red circle is the path I normally take about a mile round the hill. The purple is what I was aiming for about a 5K so I could see how fast I am going to be doing the race in July. BUT I took a wrong turn and didn't realise and the light blue is the 5.5mile I ended up doing! I loved it apart from all the bloody midges eating me alive!

As a bonus when I got back there were hundreds of runners everywhere as part of a race, I got talking to a guy from my local running club and I am going to go along to training on Thursday! I am very excited about taking my running to the next level and competing regular!

    Not as painful I don't think but just as annoying!
