Hills!
Hello all,
Just a quick (possibly stupid) question to anyone in the Northampton area....
Are there any hilly locations to tab/run across in the Northampton area? Basically I've gone from Hereford which is surrounded by all sorts of cracking places to train, and i'm getting sick to death of running across flat fucking fields in every direction!
Cheers!

Looks like its the multi storey car park for you sir.
Some people just need a sympathetic pat
on the head
with a hammer

Holland has more hills than Northampton!!!
If you are able,
save them a place
inside of you
and save one backward glance
when you are leaving
for the places they can
no longer go.
Be not ashamed to say
you loved them,
though you may
or may not have always.
Take what they have left
and what they have taught you
with their dying
and keep it with your own.
And in that time
when men decide and feel safe
to call the war insane,
take one moment to embrace
those gentle heroes
you left behind.

Possibly a bit far but still in Northamptonshire/Leicestershire borders area. Try the Jurassic Way which crosses the Welland Valley. It is inter-crossed by loads of different footpaths in and around Gretton across the valley to Morcott. The minor country roads that intersect the valley are always quiet. Failing that park your car in the Sondes Arms in Rockingham and run up and down Rockingham Hill.
If you park your car in a small village called Harringworth you sit right in the middle of a large bowl. There are some excellent routes up to Wakerley Woods and through the small hamlets which surrounds it. Believe you and me it is far from flat.Last edited by roninxix; 17-01-2012 at 18:03.
This man's attitude is a cross between disinterested apathy and cutting sarcasm.
