THE UNWRITTEN RULE
Wise to take the down hills as recovery rather than excuses to sprint - your legs will thank you later.
πββοΈ THE RUN πββοΈ
This is a good all rounder 10km that loops round the Radar Stationπ‘.
Its hard to get too comfortable on this one as the hills just keep coming. Remember what goes up must come down - there are plenty of long downhill spells to recover. Its a good one for going up and down the gears.
The rolling hills will make you work hard. The quiet lanes, the company of partridges and the shady dip through the woodsπ³ all make it worth the effort. When you see the Radar Station thereβs just a few kms to go.
(Itβs The Norwich Road Loop but just pushed a little further).
