    Great running. What shows did you wear? I heard there is mostly tarmac - is that right?

    • @RunWithJohn
      @RunWithJohn Месяц назад

      Pretty much tarmac , gravel & stone only the beginning is more typical trail with grass, rutted tyre tracks. I wore Nike Volmero, I could have used a bit more cushioning on the last 10 miles, I still remember that being fairly solid ground.

    Cracking distance and very impressed with the quality of your footage. Shame there were so many busy roads to navigate. Hope you don’t mind, I’ve added you on Strava. I’m trying to increase my distances after a knee injury and would like to build up to a marathon.
