36 miles in 24 hours & I become ‘Bug of the Month’
The plans were set, so even without ideal preparations (a weekend of bad food, booze & late nights), the plan was executed; mostly.The hubster and I parked up at New Mills and joined the Macclesfield Canal and ran 26 miles to Kidsgrove on Monday.

A great run though, I was warm enough in my gear for the … Continue reading Ass Kicked Day 10 Janathon
