Day 40 - Running with the horses

Decided to do the same route as I did on Tuesday night but this time clockwise. As I was running along Riffhams lane there was this rummble like thunder of horses hooves running along in the field next to me. I tried to spot them with my headtorch but could not see them. By doing the route this way around gave me the problem of running up North Hill. However, I managed to complete the route a minute quicker than anti-clockwise. I don't know why as it is a very long up hill section that is almost a mile long. The only thing that I can think is that on Tuesday it was quite slippy underfoot and that this caused me to be slower.
I have decided to run North Hill at the end of every month as a time trial to gauge my fitness. I will also do this on my bike to see if I am getting fitter, stronger and hopefully faster.
