Peckforton 50m loop

Flatter and longer this morning, although I felt a little tired in windier than anticipated conditions. It is all very simple from home to Rossett and Holt, and this continues through all the lovely Cheshire villages to the hard-to-cross Whitchurch Road. From here, more lovely quiet lanes give a gradual climb to Beeston followed by the undulating road on the other side of the Peckforton Hills to Bickerton and then Malpas into a headwind. After lunch in Malpas, I headed to Bangor on Dee and then home via Wrexham industrial estate. I did a version of this loop as a solo 50 mile ultra run at the height of lockdown: still one of the most memorable things I've ever done despite the fact that I started and finished at home!
