Is this why we run?

[Sybilw]

I’m lucky as I live on the edge of town and can run on tracks, paths and the side of fields. It really looks as if the weather might be improving. 🤞🏻 Happy days!

It’s great, isn’t it? I love a country lane/track. Yours looks lovely 😊

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to ktsok]

It is but can get muddy. I know where the likely spots are though by now. 😆

[Hidden]

That looks like perfect running surroundings 👍👍

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

There’s a Greenway round the town which is amazing for walks, runs and all things active. 13 miles in total - not that I plan to run it all 🤣

[Hidden in reply to Sybilw]

13 miles oooooh you probably could 🙂👍🙂👍

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Oh no I couldn’t!! 🤣🤣🤣

[Sandraj39 Graduate10]

Yep, it's certainly one of the top reasons for me! Beautiful! 😍

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Sandraj39]

Lots more views to explore again now the suns out.

[Granspeed Graduate10]

Looks lovely. My track degenerates into mud bath half way along, but yours looks perfect. 👏🏼

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Granspeed]

I turned round to avoid a muddle (mud/puddle!) earlier in the run!! I’ve learned by my mistakes 😆

[Ang33333]

That looks beautiful. Tracks where I live are so boggy. Am fed up with the roads !

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Ang33333]

Roads are definitely over rated. I did a parkrun on roads and thought it would be great after our notoriously muddy one but turns out I didn’t find it any easier. Tbf it was VERY cold too.

[Grannyhugs Graduate10]

Happy days indeed, at the moment we can believe spring is round the corner. Great photo. Happy running 🤗

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Grannyhugs]

Thank you. You too

[Dexy5 Graduate10]

Glad to hear that spring is springing at home Sybilw. Those country paths look a delight to run on . The clocks have just gone forward here so it must be spring.

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Dexy5]

Hope you’re still enjoying the views and recovering from your knock. It’s 3 weeks before the change here. Didn’t know there was such a difference.

[Dexy5 Graduate10 in reply to Sybilw]

Yes the first year we skied here, we didn’t realise and wondered why the mountain restaurant was closed when we got there. Luckily we didn’t miss the last chairlift home!

[Comfortnotspeed Graduate10]

Beautiful! It’s great to be outside today.

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Comfortnotspeed]

Indeed it is. I ran 5k then we walked another 5k for lunch. The only rain was when we were eating so wins all round!!

[MartinKH Graduate10]

Beautiful place to be.

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to MartinKH]

Is certainly is.

[Buddy34 Graduate10]

Isn't it great to be a runner when you've got lovely places to go 😊😊

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Buddy34]

It is although I confess this picture doesn’t tell the whole story. We may be rural but this particular section of this path runs a few feet from a major road!! Lies, damned lies and pictures apparently!! 🤣

[Buddy34 Graduate10 in reply to Sybilw]

It's still beautiful to see 😊

[Debston Graduate10]

Great pic, looks very inviting!

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to Debston]

I couldn’t resist the photo although I did resist stopping running to take it!! Still have Sarah in my head urging me to keep going! 😆

[Annieapple Administrator]

👍What a perfectly lovely spot to run!! Enjoy the changes Spring brings! 🏃‍♀️Happy running! 🐰 🌷 🌳 🦅

[GoGo_JoJo Graduate10]

Yep, 100% why I do it, commune with nature 👌🏻

[Sybilw Graduate10 in reply to GoGo_JoJo]

I’m amazed at how much I see despite the fact I’m ‘running’. Must be embracing my inner 🐌😆
