As part of 2014kx365 Challenge I aim to run/walk a minimum 1k everyday throughout 2014 and hopefully fund raise for chosen charities SANDS www.justgiving.com/2014kx365jimbarron and Time is Precious www.justgiving.com/365jimbarron I intend to run a minimum of 5k a day and I will strife to do this, but as we dont know what life may throw at us I have included a buffer zone to enable me to drop down to the minimum. This blog is for those who would like to follow my challenge of running everyday.

Day 205/365
Ran around the Jack n'Jill route this evening with Roger Devereux who had accompanied me on my Batman run to RUH. Starting from Westfield Trading Estate we ran steadily around the whole route which takes you up on to Haydon Batch and along the footpaths down into Radstock. In Radstock we pick up the cycle path before dropping back down into the fields running alongside the cycle path to Kilmersdon. Once in Kilmersdon a bit of a diversion takes the route under the railway bridge and up through the woods before dropping back down into the village then up Jack n'Jill hill before heading back to Haydon along footpaths past Waterside Farm. It is much more overgrown now than it was back in May and a lot less slippery, we decided not to run through the river as you do on race day although it may have been refreshing if we had. Lots of brambles and stinging nettles overhanging the footpaths, my legs were almost numb by the end of the run. Roger managed to run up the whole of Jack n'Jill hill, good work and there was a cracking sunset on another very warm evening. Just over 6 miles after running out of the trading estate.
