Easy Jog to the Yew Tree Beer Festival

Just a three mile easy run on the training diary today and, as Duncan wanted to go to the beer festival at the Yew Tree, I decided to just run there as I knew it was just over three miles away from home.

Just as I was approaching the lower barn, I got a loud buzzing noise in my ear which came from a wasp!  My only insect fear!  It landed on my right shoulder so I jumped around trying to get it off and actually touched it with my hand.  Terrifying!  This happened in front of a couple coming in the other direction and I said to them 'I'm getting attacked by a wasp', to which the lady replied 'Oh, I thought it was a new kind of dance' and then laughed.  She clearly didn't feel my pain.

That was the only drama on this short run and I reached the end of The Street, where I was meeting Duncan, with no other issues.

When I got to the end of The Street though, Duncan was not waiting for me as promised and I ended up sitting on the wall for nearly twenty minutes before he turned up, at which point I was getting a little chilly.  Apparently he got caught up chatting to our neighbour.  Thanks mate!

Total distance - 3.2 miles
