Sounds excellent to me I have two comrades to my name and this sounds like perfect training for my third comrades which is an up run and the first time I did the up I struggled on the hills so need plenty of practice this time round.
I've heard a similar story I think I'll be up for that. Looks a good route, any idea how many people are turning up?
I'm not a member of a club so it would be nice to do a long run with some other people instead of just the Ipod for company!!
