But a really good challenging one and great to take in some hills and part of the Peak District and then finish in the city centre after the support along Ecclesall Road. So, Rother Valley Parkrun on Saturday, long run on Sunday, club run on Tuesday and hill work on Thursday. Better get started 😁

(Joking. I'm sure the new organiser won't make the same mistakes.) I like that elevation graph, 5 miles up to start with and then mostly downhill for the final 8, perfect.
