I ran a new route in Cambridge today. I have often seen runners going this way, so tried it myself. It goes out over the fields between Cambridge and Grantchester, then over the M11 and out to Haslingfield. There I went up Barrington Hill, and along a footpath that skirts the quarry. It was a beautiful sunny morning, though cold, and I was a little slow, with slight back pain at the beginning.
