    Still looks like a happy girl running around in the country side.
    When I worked up there I would run out from town over the spider bridge and back round to the travel lodge.

    Well done! I'll be competing in a trail run myself in two weeks. My first ever. Not exactly an Ultra at 'only' 8 miles, but the elevation profile will be something I've never experienced before. I hope I have as much fun as it looked like you both did.

    Love the video, I did the full route and although I had the route on my basic watch (no maps, just a line), I used the written instructions as my primary nav. Reading/map reading on the move is something worth practising, when that tech fails, you'll be gratefull. Still had a few off course moments though. I only fell once too, on the really gloopy bit in Hawthorn Dene, not sure I saw that on the video 😂 Well done to you both on your longest runs 👍👏👏
