A cheeky half

Meeting early in Preston Park, we pressed-on to our trail running mission - taking a pretty secret trail up alongside the train tracks (thanks, Sarah!) to Withdean Woods, climbing up up up to meet Devil's Dyke Road and begin the trail 'proper'. We strode out along the trail following the road, pausing at the top to catch our breath and marvel over the valley in the sunshine. Then completed a loop, descent and ascent. We learnt about the legend of Devil's Dyke from the lovely people at the National Trust stall (find out more here: https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/sussex/devils-dyke/the-history-of-devils-dyke) and retraced our steps to arrive back in Brighton in time for lunch and with a half-marathon under our belts.
