Llangollen canal 18m

Another 'last chance' long run by way of very late preparation for Marathon Eryri. A beautiful morning with tremendous clarity of light, so I probably should have headed for the hills, but it was important to get the mileage in so I parked in Acrefair and ran to Pontcysyllte after which I took the Llangollen canal all the way to Horseshoe Falls near Rhewl. This wasn't as far as I thought it would be, so after doubling back round and through Llangollen, I hadn't done enough so ended with a few very hilly miles over to Ruabon and back - 18 miles in total at a steady but unspectacular pace, heel feeling OK.
