I know that on some steep sections that I jog, staying under control can take it out of you, I wouldn't fancy 13-15m of that!<br /><br />Or is it a case that it's gently enough that you can push on?<br /><br />If it's all down hill do people recognise PB's on this course?Aidanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351815147416831488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36499493.post-17148968321475964032012-06-24T11:23:36.495+01:002012-06-24T11:23:36.495+01:00While the buses leave at 6:45am, it's really o...While the buses leave at 6:45am, it's really only a case of going to bed early and getting up early.
