Today 22, D runners met on a chilly September morning for a Fools Nook Frolic.
After the warm-up, ( with obligatory hopping ), the group set off at a good pace for the two miles up the canal towpath to the Fools Nook public house.
We then crossed over to overcome a sneaky hill up the old Leek Road and then for a scenic jaunt around Sutton Reservoir. The next part of the journey took us up a wooded path over the fields, reconvening for a "mean Mels circle of doom", then back into Sutton Village.
After discussion, the whole group agreed to run the Parvey Lane loop to complete a full 6 miles, more for those who looped and circled and indeed ( Chris and Twiggy ) some hill fartleks!
It was a really good run, lots of comradery and support and the odd bit of yelling from me ( my apologies I may buy a whistle!).
Really impressed again today, well done all.
Mel, Jenny and Paul
