The Histon Railway Run


It's been two weeks since the Folksworth 15. Since then I've only done short runs (~5x4 miles) and circuits (x2). Sunday was arse on the line time again (or lines on the arse, never again!).

I met up with the
University Hare and Hounds at St.John's porters lodge to do their 14 mile "Histon Railway Run".

There were 11 people running. Some of the faster people were away as it was the BUSA competition weekend, but a good core of their Marathon training group were running. A good route, except for the 2-3 ankle twisting miles on railway ballast near Histon.
It keeps me off the treadmills. The lack of a knob to dial up 14.1 km/h is a great advantage. How long would you stay on if the treadmill had a rock ballast and railway sleeper setting?

Who wants to do this?

Lastly, Rachel's email proposing tonight's cross training schedule:
