Personally, I find out-and-back routes to be pretty boring but what else can you do in a strange neighbourhood. Keep up the great work.Legs and Wingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16109916595853258092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-1152556547472860882006-07-10T19:35:00.000+01:002006-07-10T19:35:00.000+01:00I think your 5k had a great time!
