Running
Running is a fantastic way to keep fit and healthy. You may see me running regularly around Finedon and the surrounding area. Its a great way for me to see Finedon and the gorgeous countryside that surrounds our town. This section is suited to the Health column as it is here to inspire you to get out and get fit.
Are you new to running? Then make sure you start of slowly. Do a little at a time, drink plenty of water, and wear clothing appropriate. Good trainers and running gear really help to keep you warm in winter and cool in the summer. Check out this site for further running advice and help. http://www.fetcheveryone.com
I will be listing a range of routes in and around Finedon for you to follow be it walking, jogging, running or even sprinting!
The Finedon Mile - http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=571218
1 mile (Approx) Route. Good for runners and dog walkers alike, this is a 1 mile route around Finedon. The great thing about this route, is you can do as many laps as you want without leaving Finedon, and you will know how many miles you have completed based on how many laps. Keep to the paths where ever possible and make sure you look out for traffic, and the labrador doesnt bite or chase anyone so don’t panic when he barks! 
2 Mile Loop - http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=571359
2 miles (Approx) route. Starting from the Roundabout where the Finedon Sign is situated, this loop takes you around Finedon for two miles again without leaving town, so if you get tired at any point, you are only a breif walk home away.
7 Mile Loop - http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=571378
7 miles (Approx) Route. This will take you down to Rushden and Diamonds Football Club, then up through Irthlingborough Town Centre, then onto Sidegate Lane followed by the slow rise back into Finedon.
9.5 Mile Loop - http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=571179
9.5 miles (Approx) Route . Starting outside the Finedon Infant School, High Street Entrance, this route takes you down the main A6 out of Finedon towards Kettering. Just before you reach Kettering you turn towards the Village of Cranford, through Cranford then loop back towards Finedon passing Woodford and the Addingtons. Remember your own safety.
