Run in the sun ๐Ÿ˜Š

No point to this post really but just wanted to share that I had a lovely 10k this morning. Not run that far for a few weeks but did 8 last week and felt that I could do the full distance today. Had planned to run my usual (urban) loop but, as the weather was so perfect and I had the time, I decided to run down the canal for a run with a view instead. It was warm so headed into the woods for some shady sections too to break it up. Deliberately tried to slow down so it would be easier and it was my slowest 10k yet - but my heart rate still went ridiculously high! Not sure if I should worry about this or not - it seems normal for me! ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

Anyway, that aside it was a perfect run with swans and bluebells and smiley dog walkers under blue skies. Made me feel so grateful to have discovered running ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

You are right about the lovely day Teacherm. To run along a tow path is one of my things to do. I suspect it might be Macclesfield because we have friends there. I canโ€™t go anywhere without accessing it for running. The power of running!

Dexy one of my goals for this year is to run the Macc canal (in sections). Iโ€™ll run some of it with you if Iโ€™m available when you do it ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Iโ€™ll definitely let you know if we get there Baddie. It will probably coincide with an Accrington Stanley football match

The towpath is the perfect place to run - nice and flat with lots to look at and you can basically keep going as far as you like!

Sounds like a lovely run. I have no idea what my heart rate does, so canโ€™t comment on that Iโ€™m afraid. Hereโ€™s to Easter running along the canal. The wether forecast is good. Enjoy!

Lovely! I do all my longer runs on a canal path for the flatness, woods and scenery. Nice to see signs of spring everywhere.๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒณ
