Situated around the 4.5k mark of the total 5k route they have very quickly come to represent the prospect of rest, relief and completion.</p> <p>They also mark the halfway point of my morning runs, which again speaks to turning points and the call of home. Finding out they were donated to the city by a company I once worked for added a sense of serendipity to all of that.</p>
