Training Log Archive: Scrappy Doo

Out to Frampton-on-Severn, Arlingham and end of the road at the Severn opposite Newnham. then back via Framilode, Saul, Eastington, Frocester and Coaley..... lovely late afternoon, early evening ride.

M5 very quiet - the road to Arlingham was busy and I am sure the local farm workers were heading to the pub!! Probably explains the sign at the entrance to the village telling outsiders to stay away...

Longest lockdown run (and of 2020)....

Went out earlier than normal (my normal being early evening!). so was hot.

Walked through town to woods then started from there, over to New Inn (Waterley Bottom), roads to Westridge Woods, then in serach of Nibley's finest seesaw (as shown on Google maps)., up to Tyndale monument, North Nibley and a bit of road to avoid the Cotswold Way, then circled around bottom of Stinchcombe Hill to make it up to 10 mile.

The seesaw was a bit like seeing the Little mermaid in Copenhagen, somewhat underwhelming......

Short Achilles test

Seemed ok

Right Achilles slightly tender, so went for a walk and did some more mapping at Breakheart Quarry
