Monday 13th April - (St Neot to Tavistock)



Only 22 miles to do today (we thought) turned out to be 26, bother! Passed first 100 mile point 9 miles in, then after 17 miles crossed the River Tamar at Horsebridge, from Cornwall into Devon. Feel like we’re making some progress. Terry reappeared and ran the section with us (he’d already completed 63 miles on the first 2 days). The day’s start was tough as we had to climb up to Bodmin Moor , but the end was gentler and we finished running through Tavistock and onto Whitchurch Down on Dartmoor – glorious. Looking at weather forecasts, we appear to be doing well – staying ahead of the rain, which then started soon after we finished. Tomorrow is Dartmoor all day, being joined by Jo and Dave Martin to support us and hoping for good weather to continue .
