Seven and a bit tonight, nice and steady, and completely uneventful! I managed to do two loops without ducking out after the first, but the conditions were more conducive to running than of late. Looks like it might freeze overnight, though.
My number and information pack for the Action Heart 5-miler arrived today. Typically, 4 days after posting our Humber Bridge Half Marathon entries, the online entry system opened today! The world's longest single span suspension bridge, until 1998. I well remember my dear old dad taking me to Hessle to see the two bridge towers newly rising from the estuary. That probably wasn't our main objective, but it stands out in my memory more than whatever else we did that day, about 36 years ago! It's still the longest span you can run, walk or cycle over - anywhere in the world. 1,410 metres, if you're wondering, and its one big long hill which we'll have to go over twice! I just hope it's not windy.
