Station to Station

I set off from home today and ran down to the Roman Lakes and along the Goyt Way to Strines Station. It wasn't as cold as it has been and by Windybottom I was feeling rather warm and took off my jacket, hat and gloves. Fortunately my Lowe Alpine waist belt is quite capacious and though it was stuffed the zip still shut. Hardly anyone about early on a Monday, just a few dog-walkers and horse-riders.

Brookbottom

From Strines I took the track up to Brookbottom. I seem to recall that I once ran all the way up here but not today, my stiff right thigh still hurts on steep uphills so I ran-walked up to the Fox. Brookbottom is such a hidden little hamlet, like somewhere from a story with the houses all huddled together. The Methodist church is undergoing conversion into a house, it will be a very spacious one, who will have the money to buy it?
Back along the upper lane through the golf course and down by Linnet Clough. Up Lakes Road, nearly ran all the way to the top but not quite, I have no wish to wreck my good physiotherapy work now I am on the mend finally. 11.7km 1hr27
