Gayhurst
Cut back week, was aiming at running 17 miles today, but the route I took only came to 15.8.
Milton Keynes is really very flat, however, running through the northern villages is very hilly! The first 10 miles saw myself and J running up to Linford, then along and through Gayhurst then out towards Hanslope Park, Haversham and back around to Linford… at this point J headed home and I carried on, but I was worn out, it is just hill after hill after hill.
I headed back to the main road but turned right instead of going back around to Gayhurst. I then followed the loop through Lathbury down to Newport Pagnell town centre and back up.
I knew when J left me I’d come up short on distance, but by the way I was feeling I didn’t really mind. My legs were spent!
