After half an hour in the dental hygienist's chair, it was so good to just get out and run and run and run πŸ˜‚. So that's the second 8K in the bag 🌞.

It was a glorious morning, the sun was shining, the sea looked fab. Altogether, a lovely day. So glad I started out running nearly a year ago now, just makes me feel glad to be alive, and so much fitter and generally healthier than I've ever been - but I do get tired too πŸ™ƒ.

Happy running everyone πŸ™‚πŸŒ», have a good weekend.

Thank you Fab450. Yes, it is certainly lovely on a sunny day, but can be really stormy, wet and windy - but that's the British seaside πŸŒžπŸ™‚, love it!

Haha Your first sentence sounds as if you literally got out of the dentist's chair and just ran away πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ But I don't blame you 😩

Well done on the 8K and feeling tired is normal. You're working your body hard.

Amazing 8k Gran4z! I’m so glad it made you feel great today. Dental hygiene appointments are never fun, so you deserved it, that’s for sure! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Yes, I can hear the wind raging outside this evening...makes for an interesting run. Had a real windy, wet one last Wednesday. Enjoy your run πŸ™‚

30 minutes is a bit of a marathon (no pun intended)! Sounds like a lovely run πŸ˜€
