Training
One minor ambition achieved: I can now run to the One Tree Hill allotments and back.
I ran up Kimberley Avenue, then Ivydale Road but instead of turning right into Brenchley Gardens I went straight on via Eddystone Road onto Brockley Road. Then, I turned right and ran up Honor Oak Park, turned right into Forest Hill Road then trundled back down the hill with a brief uphill at Colyton Road.
54 minutes altogether but very gentle - 12 minute mile pace for 4.5 miles. My excuse is that it was slow going uphill and too slippery to race downhill. If I could get that same trip down to 45 minutes in the next couple of months I'd be a very happy man.
