Julian says: “Wasn’t looking forward to the second run having dehydrated myself totally on the first. But Jos’ pre-run massage put a bit of life into the old body and when Andy arrived, I stepped into my stride.
The route was all lanes now so I was wearing a florescent strip. The sun was slowly going down behind me, lighting up the countryside around with wonderful hues. Listening to a good Kent band (Keane – Hopes & Fears) whilst running along lanes between sheep on one side and young cornfields on the other, it was easy to see why Kent is the Garden of England.
My run was scheduled for “6 miles” but at 40 minutes, I passed The George…clearly a minor error in the measurements. But I was happy to pass by the others with a cry of “9 miles an hour…9 miles an hour”
