The first attempt at a return to exercise via the NHS couch to 5km programme. Hence walking, then running and walking with a warm-down walk at the end.
Route: leaving the car opposite the Aga shop in Kendal and walking briskly north on the path by the river to cross the A6 (Station Road) and follow the path by the river to cross the Kent on the footbridge and return through the industrial estate on Mintsfeet Road and Shap Road to St George’s Church and along the river onto Little Aynam, past the Barrel House and Factory Tap, along Aynam Road to cross the Lound Road bridge and then walking back along the river to the start.
Conditions: the slight threat of rain unrealised, a warm humid cloudy day.
Pub: the Handsome Brewery Snuff Bar for Handsome Hound IPA and Blonde and T’s first ever go at pulling a pint.
