LEJOG day 3 - Cullompton to Glastonbury

93 km  Elev gain: 567 m  (58 miles / 1860 ft)
4 °C (real feel 1 °C)

A short and flat day today, but it feels harder than it should. I must be tired after fighting the wind for two days. I follow NCR 3 - a peaceful mostly traffic free route along the Tiverton canal which reflects beautifully in the sunlight.


Lunch stop is in Taunton at The Shed cafe (excellent), then I continue on route 3 along the Taunton and Bridgwater canal towpath. More crystal clear water and lovely reflections.


Route 3 continues off road all the way to Glastonbury, where I find my AirBnB and a warm welcome from hosts Tina and Martin in their family home.

Running total: 345 km  Elev gain: 4243 m  (214 miles / 13,921 ft).  18 hrs 37 mins
