If anyone saw my 10k vid yesturday you will recall I said I had been planning a big run with my sister. Well we did it....we have been wanting to explore the coastal footpath more from Godrevy to Portreath so aimed to go further.
Neither of us have done a run this far for yonks and I have been on 1 mile runs for a problematic Achilles for a while, and wanting to get better for this. Our strategy was to go super slow and walk every mile ( in order to be able to keep going). I suggested we aim for 14 minute miles.
The low down:
💥We both really loved it...
🦀The walk breaks were a great way to refuel, take pics and have a laugh ( we had a little dance at 9 miles) and a brofist.
💥The scenery was breathtaking and it just felt so good to be out.
🦀I do a large amount of other cardio and strength work, and she is a gymnast. I am convinced this is what enabled us to do it after no long runs etc ( I don’t recommend this tho).
💥 Bendicks mints are a great snack as they are all individually wrapped.
🦀It just reminded me just how much I love running, with no pressure on times or PB,s etc but just running with a strong body enjoying the adventure.
Happy Panthering, and please just enjoy the adventure...... this is what it’s all about.
