I’m trying to work out where it could be, GM. Cadney?

I’m thinking it’s maybe starting from the recreation ground in Brigg, as there needs to be a decent size area to start and finish, plus there’s a car park there, then maybe along part of the new Ancholme path towards Broughton. There’s only roads to Cadney.

That's great progress GM. As long as the second 5K never took an hour ;-)

I am, SW. I'm really enjoying running at the moment. It's funny how a bit of success makes the hard work more pleasurable, isn't it!

Oh yes! We seem to be in the same boat and I’m loving the results that consistent running can bring :)
