Ran my 3 and a bit miles in Wales this morning... just crossed back over into England. This part of the world is rather lovely.

Looking back the way..

Just made it past Chirk Castle. I didn't stop as I still have nightmares from the half marathon that starts and finishes at the castle.

I looked back and this was my training entry for that day....

Chirk Half Marathon. This one absolutely broke me today, our club captain cajoled me over the line as the legs had just stopped working. Really hot and a serious amount of climbing in the second half. Went off far too fast and really paid the penalty.

I hope that Fetch Towers is like a castle, otherwise how are all these finishers going to fit in? Goodness knows how crammed it's going to be when the rest of us turn up ;-)
jelly, Sushi, Jayfire et al. are going to have their work cut out looking after all these arrivals :-p

By the time I get there it'll be like one of those Japanese trains where they have people employed to shove passengers in the doors.

Is that a real thing? I'm sure I saw a video once.
