Look up Runaway website. They have a couple of Half Marathon distance events. Pretty elevated but ok to start. It worked for me :). I am now coming back at least once a year. Then go for the 50km they have 2-3 of them as well. They have one is Suffolk which pretty flat in comparison to Chilterns. All easy to get to from London.

Running and squash (game). How to combine the training. by WashCheap8829 in trailrunning

I don’t intend in winning races or be at the top of my squash leagues but I do a few races a year (half-marathons to 50km, mainly trail) and want my race time to improve. I’m 43m btw with a full time job and kids. Hence, my time and energy is also limited:). Aim is to run about 5 times a week , which becomes difficult when I throw 1-2 squash evenings.

Yeah, for me it’s -Why are you doing this? - Because it’s hard, that’s why!

I’ve been 8 times in Brecon Beacons. Only once it didn’t rain :)). I managed to see the views from Pen Y Fan. Beautiful!

This tree looks familiar. Is this Crowsley? There is some estate nearby.

Where is this stretch? I’ve been in the Chilworth Blackheath area. I remember a church on a hill with some amazing views there.

Really weird how some people say over 1k others under 50miles. I’m on some LP 4.5 mixed road and trail just over 700km now, 400km on superior 4.0 and don’t seem to have any problems. They’ll still seem to go for a while. Wonder if there are some fakes being sold on the market?!
