Inspired by Bluebirdrunner and SaskAlliecat 's posts (which I read before setting out today) about seeking joy in every run I decided to make today's run a longer one (I had been umming and aahhring) and join together two of my more scenic Oxford routes for a dawn run.
And what joy there was - sunrise over the Thames; pink, yellow and blue skies; golden buildings, graceful swans, early morning rowers and to cap it all off a rainbow!
AND an effortless 10k pb AND the first time I've ever felt I could have pushed further at the end of a 10k.
Joyous indeed. Thanks for the inspiration ladies! π
Happy weekend running!
Wow....sounds wonderful DebJogsOn ....beautiful photos too...thank God for running eh? And this forum full of inspiring people just like you x
I love this forum I certainly wouldn't have set out for a longer run if I hadn't read some of the posts on here first.
And it was such a lovely run - so glad I didn't miss it! π
I'm so glad you didn't miss it too x π
