For possibly the first and last time ever, I'm ahead of MrsB in an event. :-) (I'm most of a mile along New Road from her, still in the Forest of Dean.)

The scenery doesn't seem to have changed in the last couple of miles, so I won't bother with another pic, even thought it's very nice and woody!

My actual running view. I’m approaching the A4136 on the castle run. 😂 Now, with today’s run done, I’m off to get a cooked breakfast going. I’m on leave for a few days, I deserve it!

I finally made it out of the dustbin, it got a bit cramped last night when Speedy21 joined me. And I am not sure what was happening down the road but there was a Fetch trio at 24.4.

The weather looks a bit grim today so I am going to seek shelter in the hedgerow.

Looks like I’m going to have to build my own shelter for tonight.

Just made it through checkpoint 2 at Chepstow. Brought back memories of doing the Severn Bridge half a few years ago.

If we're stopping here tonight it looks like a battle through the hedgerow into the field behind to pitch the tent.



Think I'll wait till the old lady gets here to see if we're moving on a bit further first.

Feet up kettle on then 😌

At least there's a pavement...


The map tells me there's fields and a cemetery on the other side of these hedges though so hopefully I can find a little camping spot.
