Left going out till later for my run this evening till 8.45pm. I had decided to go go off road but I think I left it half an hour late as it was too dark to safely run through Harridge woods without a head torch so ended up running along the road from Stoke a Bottom Farm to the Duke of Cumberland and up Holcombe Hill to home.
Much cooler when I went out to how it had been today ran through Edford Meadows, heaps of butterfly's still busy at work then to Ham and followed the footpaths to bottom of Coleford. Going is very firm under foot now after the dry weather, good for running but caution needs to be taken in case of rolling an ankle. Coming back towards Holcombe loud music was blasting out of the woods sounded like there was possibly a rave going on, not dressed for house music I ran on. Back in Holcombe everyone seemed to be taking advantage of the weather out door parties and BBQ 's all around. Ran across the playing fields and up Silver Street and across
the fields to the Holcombe Inn. I then took off across the fields to Pitcot up Pitcot Ln and back into the fields then down the track to Stoke Bottom, it was getting dark now so not wanting to risk tripping on a root and falling head first into a tree I ran around the road home. Just short of 7 miles in 1 hr 7 minutes.
