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.

March 27th - Linton Hill

The most prominent landmark in any direction from the house is the mast on Linton Hill to the east, and it struck me a shameful that I’ve only run there once since moving here. Last time it took an hour, and this time I had exactly an hour before Anna had to disappear for one of her mysterious daily appointments. Right foot kept cramping, and eventually I had to loosen my shoe twicw, the second time to the extent that my foot was sliding around inside on the descents. Nevertheless, nipped out to the mast and back in 55 minutes without any real discomfort from the rib.

Visited Peter Darling at Bowmont Forest sawmill this morning to talk through options for cladding for the new house. Quite exciting. Probably going to go for larch grown and processed in Bowmont Forest, which is kind of nice.
