Ran Rayleigh this morning. Run 7.
Two weeks off because of the smoke, so I wanted flat, and Rayleigh is flat. What I did not expect was how much the neighbourhood changes depending on where you are standing in it.
The highway and rail side is exactly what people assume Rayleigh is. Loud. But get down toward the North Thompson and it is quiet, the lots are big, and it feels like the country without the 45 minute drive I do every day from Pinantan.
I do these runs because I think you learn more about a neighbourhood at running pace than you ever do from a car. You hear it. You see which yards get used.
Rayleigh folks: what do you wish people knew about living out here that never shows up in a listing?
Comment RUN and I will send you today's route.
