We’re very grateful to Mike Wells, who has run a recce of the course this morning.
Lincolnshire’s a bit wet at the minute, and down on the fields in the flatlands there’s a lot of standing water.
Canals are useful things, though, and the banks of this canal are quite high.
Wet underfoot, but bearing up well, as these photos would attest.
The bottom two photos are the area where we were planning on having the aid station – a little bit squelchier, but nothing we can’t work with.
If it were me running, I’d wear road shoes, although probably not the ones I’ve still got sitting in a box in my wardrobe.
Thanks Mike, see you Saturday.
