Welsh coast challenge week 3 (partial) results

In week 3 the group collectively ran 143 km, but that's missing check-ins from quite a lot of people. This means we've covered 629 km in total, and we've just passed the port of Fishguard, ending up in roughly here in the Pembrokeshire National Park:



We have basically run round St Bride's Bay, which is the bit in between in between the two "fingers" in the SW corner of Wales. We have passed close by Skomer Island, where it's peak baby seal season just now. We've visited St Davids, the UK's smallest city. We've rounded the westernmost point in mainland Wales, Treginnis, and we're now running north-east along the Irish sea coast, with stunning beaches and amazing wildlife.

We've got a couple of extra days in week 4, and if people who didn't have a chance to check in this week report double mileage next week, we might just make it at least round the coast. As of Monday we have covered just over 50% of our goal distance. I am also planning to use our active hours to take a side-trip from Fishguard to Ireland by ferry :-)
