Hills with local running group

[BaddieThePirate]

That was hard work, and I was trailing behind for all the uphill bits (but not for the downhill bits).

Please note the elevations in the photo, and yes, of course I walked some bits. Rough under foot in places but totally beautiful 🌿🌱🍃🌳☀️

Now I feel slightly less bad about eating half a packet of biscuits this morning 🤭

Off to the supermarket in my matching outfit of pink face and pink top now.

Wow. Proper hills. Don't like hills! But don't avoid them now. Well done!! ⛰⛰⛰⛰😎

Snap!

[Jell6 Graduate10]

I would expect to be carried up 103m!

I hope the biscuits were good 🍪🍪

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Jell6]

They were too good!

[Couchpotato2]

That is a serious amount of hills! I’m very impressed. Well done you

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Couchpotato2]

Nice view from the top 😄

[cheekychipmunks Graduate10]

Whoa, hilly! Well done you, it sounds like fun! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️😀

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to cheekychipmunks]

The people were lovely and we kept stopping and regrouping. One runner ran extra distance to avoid the cows! 🐄

Whoohoo! Hills, hills and more hills!!

[Cornet-Carolyn Graduate10]

I hate hills but they are "proper" ones. Well done for even trying 👏

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Cornet-Carolyn]

That is all I'm doing at the moment, trying! Knee muscles were working hard so they must be getting stronger 💪

[uncle_wiggy]

In so many ways I envy you for both having the hills and the self motivation to train on them! You will be gaining so much strength from those sessions plus you get all those beautiful views!

Then I go out for a nice little flat 6k before work & for no reason whatsoever I find myself shattered and so glad that I don't have to face those hills!

Well done baddie, next time you get a flat event you're legs will be grateful 💪

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to uncle_wiggy]

I slept well last night! I'm struggling with motivation hence goin out with groups. I have to admit I'm always tired but put that down to illness and old age. I have to admit I love flat runs 😁

[JonathanP Graduate10]

Well done Baddie! It will do you good in the long term - even if it doesn't feel like it in the short term ! ⛰️😀

[grumpyoldgirl]

Baddie the Hill Pirate! Scary hills there Baddie, I tackled one yesterday veeeery slowly. But you're inspiring me to stop avoiding them. Sounds like we matched each others colour combo again😂

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10]

I can feel my knees this morning! Good luck with hills. Slowly is the way...🐌🐌 (Oh there is no pink snail emoji)

[Katnap Graduate10]

I bet you're still feeling the effects of that run! 😁👏👏👏💪

[BaddieThePirate Graduate10 in reply to Katnap]

Yep, just slightly today around the knee area, so went for a walk today.

[Fabulous450 Graduate10]
