20110530 Monday - a warm run
Start 9h45 - from Wilberforce Road / C.L.T.C.

Coton path
9h57 nearly leaving Cotton entering a small footpath -
in fact now entering properly the way of the boundary run "anticlockwise"
Ying & Yang
(just made up these names)
1 frog + 2 lammas lost in Coton
one of the gate that was so muddy back in February
and another just before
10h04 Coton countryside reserve (
www.cambridgeppf.org/coton-countryside-reserve.shtml)
10h08 bridge over the M11
10h12 joined Barton Road
10h17 Wolfson College (
www.wolfson.cam.ac.uk/)
10h20 Cambridge Model Engineering Society (
http://www.cambridgemes.co.uk/) Miniature Train Rides
10h22 St Catharine’s Astroturf pitch, off Grantchester Road
http://www.caths.cam.ac.uk/home/ 10h24 entering Grantchester Meadow. Now I had to choose either go back the easy way, turning left immediately heading to paradise reserve with plenty of free time to get my little boy on time at CLTC
or taking the risk to arrive later than 11am, turning right, the long way.
I took the risk
10h34 Grantchester Mill Pond
10h40 end of Winchmore drive - a bit climbing up, managed to keep a short conversation on the mobile at the same time, startign to be quite hot now
10h48 I left Trumpington Road now, I think this is called Woodland Garden
10h51 Lamma's land
11h00 back to Coton path, reaching C.L.T.C. just on time,
went along Queen's Road, then turn behind the university Library (Burrel's Walk)
to join Adams Road.
Very sweaty and smelly...
but happy I made it!
1H15 - approximately 9.5 miles, or 15 kms in 75 mins, so 12km/h on average.
I wasted easy 5 minutes just taking pictures and readjusting my strap now too old and lose...
Not bad.
But what for?
Just say it again:
Families Need Fathers
