Seriously Sedate Sight-Seeing Segue

Aaaaaaaand I'm back in the game!

After saying there was no way I'd run Paris 2007, history repeated itself; I was delayed by lethargy and then hijacked by work, missed the entry for London and then didn't want to miss out on the 'fun'.

It's been an age and a half since I ran further than the odd double-trail (when haring in the summer), but broke my duck yesterday with the help of Strapatitome, Ken and Cow Botherer (these are modified hash names, to protect the guilty). The route is a nice 10 mile circuit that's mainly off-road but firm underfoot, without any soul destroying lode following, so it could become something of a standard route from here.

Underwear calls his standard routes past the kennels the Long Dogs and the Short Dogs, so what should we call this one? My kick off suggestion is "The Short Dogs of Waterbeach". Someone has to be able to do better...
