Introduction

After several years of struggling to squeeze in more than a couple of runs each week, and aware that the final years of my athletic prime were passing at a clip, I resolved to run every day for a year. Didn't manage it in 2006 (made it to then end of june), so hopefully the discipline of this blog and the £1 challenge will see me right in 2007.

January 9th - Gateshaw & Morebattle Hills

Terrible night's sleep and groggy all morning, so set off into the wind and sun at lunchtime for a livener. Felt much better once I was out, and for the rest of the day. A tad under 40 minutes with a couple of nice stiff climbs. Still feeling sluggish. Pictures show the views from Gateshaw Hill, where the local farmer has built a series of cairns with metre-wide stones (and a tractor!) to confuse the archaeologists in centuries to come.

I'm only asking cos you said -

"(and a tractor!) to confuse the archaeologists in centuries to come."

So has he just dumped and left his tractor on the hill?

That's all !!
