Google Map of Mega-Run
I found myself with an inpromptu 'day-off' in Pembrokehire, having put some engineers on the Smalls Lighthouse on Tuesday. I had a glorious Wednesday in which to stretch my legs. (I ran nearly 10 miles on Tuesday night as well).
I decided to head off to Little Haven which is the race HQ for the Pembroke Marathon in March. I ran from Haverfordwest, which is where we usually park the helicopter when we're over there. It was lovely running through the countryside to the coast, then when I arrived at Little Haven, I was pleasantly surprised how nice it was,. There are two or three pubs and a brilliant beach with panoramic views over St Brides bay. I couldn't run this far and not check out the coastal footpaths so I ran nearly four miles along the coast which was superb, great singletrack and awesome vistas !
After an hour and a half, I decided I ought to turn back and headed for home. Total run time : 2hrs 57mins, and distance about 19.5 miles : OOPS, only two days to recover before the Gower Marathon !!
I must admit though, I was feeling good !!
Roll on Saturday !
