There used to be a pub in York called the Landlord's Arms..... A good place to spend an evening, especially for the ladies in Hen Parties! ;-)

I'm just 10k short of my second castle - and found this interesting Google "artefact" on the road where I'm stopped!

It’s the rare Tarmac Dolphin, you are lucky to spot it :)

Made it out of the black hole and now in Dinas Powys - I may make it to the 1st castle by the end of the challenge 😂

Thought I would have a bit of a rest at the rugby club as it is such a lovely day before I go out for a pootle later.

Thanks SW 😍 I might need to leave the dog at home and get my roller skates on to catch up with you 😂

Was 2 km short of Hay castle today. Stayed by the river in a B&B a few years ago when run-walking Offa’s Dyke. When I left I forgot my nettle-beating stick in a pot by the front door. If anybody passes, please feel free to take it along for the off-road sections ;)

My run today has landed me on a very busy main road, so that's going to be an uncomfortable night in a hedge. But at least I'm off the coast and heading back up towards Cardiff.

3% of the way there!

So. My run this morning stopped me just short of the Wales - England border... clearly I couldn’t face crossing. Google stops there too apparently:

I unexpectedly got my 3rd badge this morning. I hadn't realised I was so close to the 150 so without realising, my run this morning took me to 150.2! Made it by the skin of my teeth *there's lucky*

*look you* :)

I'm right behind my IRL friend Ultrahamster. Very motivating (to beat him!)
