So if you want a flat LSR route, what better choice than a disused railway line, which has been converted into a cycle path? Straight(ish), flat, very pretty, and still with a station on the line. ‘Black Dog Halt’ entranced my son when he was little, even without any tracks or trains!
Pretty pleased with myself, actually – roll on my Half Marathons in September!
Oh hang on – a short 5K to get through first…
