@paynowlivelater : If you want a real soul-busting 'jog', take a look at Lowestoft's 'Scores Race'... The southern-softie fell-runners use it as a nice warm-up for the real thing up north ;O)
@paynowlivelater : The scores are a set of stepped alley-ways, each about 1000-150 yards long, once used by the fisherfolk to gain access to the beach from their cliff-top dwellings. There are at least 8 of them, which you alternately run up and down, and they have a rise of about 30-45 degrees. The hard bit is that the 'steps' are a bit more than a step-length in depth, which forces you to either reach long or almost tip-toe up... I've seen hardened men bubble on this run.
Well done! You ran across one of Britain's lumpiest and most beautiful places :O)

@Original50 looks cool - couldn't find out how much ascent there is though...
