So much for my sense of direction!

I might have to start actually planning my routes in future!  Today's run was supposed to be a steady 5miles with an extension to 7 if I was feeling good.  Well, the downs are certainly a lot larger than I remember, and being forced to run slowly past lots of parked up cars (slightly suss if you ask me!) was not my most enjoyable running experience.

I realised about half way around that this was going to be longer than planned and so started a beeline for the gym where I had parked up my car.  Notwithstanding a few twists a turns, along with a few more hills than I planned for, I managed to crawl back having completed another 9.5miles and pushed my mileage to date over the 50 mile mark!  Woo Hoo!

Run number 10: 15.12km starting at Horfield gym, out to Westbury then looping up to the downs and back.
