Eight mile loop up the Leeds Road to Bramhope, up passed the Fox & Hounds pub, down through Bramhope village and back down the Leeds Road.
Wore X-socks speed metal, Compressport calf guards, Skins shorts, Sub-4 long shorts, Skins short sleeve top, Adidas parkrun 50 T-shirt, Racing the Planet arm sleeves, Nike storm jacket, hat and gloves!
Used my new Ultimate Direction Diablo back pack with two litres of water plus compulsory kit such as head torch, dry sack, camera, Frosties bars etc! Felt pretty good, two litres of water is heavy, but pack was stable and there appears to be only one day, day three on the Wild Coast Ultra run when I might need to start out with two litres (or slightly more) in my back pack - though this hydration pack can hold three litres and the pack also takes a 500 ml bottle, so plenty of options.
8 more miles, tally now up to 779.
