Early Morning Richmond Park

After Ten Mile Sunday and Recovery Monday it's out at 6 am this Tuesday morning for a quick five miles of scaring rabbits and deer in Richmond Park. No other runners around. I am sooooo special.
I am thinking that when my contract ends at the end of March I will go up to Scotland for a couple of months of full-on running around the hills before running across Europe.
It would be an opportunity to test things out. I have a lightweight bivvy bag which I am keen to test. It is a great deal lighter than the tent. But would I be able to sleep in it night after night for an extended period? That is something that would be worth an experiment before heading off to the Baltic.
If I could do a thousand miles of Scotland before heading off there might be a book in that. I have lots of ideas for a book about Scotland. When would I have time to write it, though? I could draft it as I go and finish it when I get back from Europe later in the summer. A lot depends on how long I can make my money last, I suppose.
Any way it plays out I have a feeling this is going to be a great year.
