Saw these lovely sunflowers on my route today. So bright and cheerful - yellow is my favourite colour.
Set off this morning about 8, a bit later than usual and sun was already warm but luckily there was a cooling sea breeze πPassing the local recreation ground I saw lots of activity as folk set up for the fete. Then we continued our warm up walk along the cliff, down in to the town, past the heritage railway station and to the beginning of the old railway track where I let Squiggy off the lead and set off at a slow pace. I didn't have a plan, maybe do 5 or 6k. I quite like running without the pressure of having to achieve a certain distance. Squiggy was enjoying trotting along at his own pace, chasing the odd wood pigeon who dared to sit in the middle of the track! I kept a steady but slow pace, feeling good. Decided to keep going into the next village, under the railway bridge and onto a newly made cycling route where I saw these beautiful flowers π At the end of the new track I turned around and retraced my steps, upping the pace just a bit. Back under the bridge, past the recreation ground - look out πππshort lead!! Continued to retrace my steps running all the way back home and after lots of stretches a nice cuppa!
What an enjoyable 10k Sunday morning run - lovely sunshine, cooling breeze, trees for shade and a river for a quick cooling dip (πΆ not me!).
I hope you all enjoyed your weekend runs π
