Every morning he runs to the train station, four miles there and four miles back in the evening. He keeps several suits and shiny shoes at work and you can see him at half past seven in his Lycra. Today he wasn&amp;rsquo;t going to run home. I parked my car near to the station; you get two hours free in Aldi, although I wasn&amp;rsquo;t buying anything today. I kicked off my shoes, locked them in the boot and set off home, barefoot. 5pm and traffic was building up. I set a reasonable pace as I wanted to get home in an hour, although I was slowed a little by a few stretches where the Tarmac was rough. The last mile was through the park and I could have walked on the grass, but I didn&amp;rsquo;t. That would be defeating the object.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
