Now we are six

Six years ago to the day I started running again, after more than ten years abstinence, on the muddy path at the back of the University of Brighton's Falmer campus. I'm still running, and am overjoyed to find that my new job has lockers and showers, so lunchtime running, and therefore proper training for next year's Brighton marathon is feasible.
While at the weekend greater athletes than I took themselves to New York, I ran twice over Seaford Head, on Saturday by the short route, on Sunday by the longer one which gives a 5.6 miles trip, taking in the muddy paths along the Cuckmere estuary.
I didn't run today, though I went for a short reconnoitre, to see if I could find the canal near here which promises to be a good place for a run. I believe it to be the same one that Lee Rourke uses in his recent book, The Canal. I could not find it today, but will check on a map.
