Saturday 26th October - Fools Nook Circuit

The Start

Wow - a great turnout again with 20 runners leaving the warmth of a cosy bed to do the 'Fool's Nook Circuit'.

Once again we were lucky to avoid the poor weather and stayed dry for the whole run. We did a decent warm up in the Garden Centre CP and then headed south along the canal towards Fool's Nook. Loop-Back was tricky as the path was narrow so we did 3 giant 'loop-back' when we could.

A quick regroup at Fool's Nook and then we attacked 'that hill' (are we there yet?????). Some good running up the hill. We then came back via a muddy field, Sutton and finally past Sutton Hall to the starting point. A good 4.5 miles I think - good effort.

A number of group members then attempted to increase the profits in the cafe and also managed a good rearrangement of the furniture  ;-)

Keep running ...
