Sunday afternoon walk

The nice thing about a Sunday afternoon walk is you can stop and take photos, look at the flowers and trees

So an old favourite of mine up through the woods and we were at the top before we knew it our legs way stronger than before we started running

We stood and gazed across the field to the deep blue sea then ran down through the woods on the other side, zig zagging to avoid trees and roots and purposefully not going fast as once we speed up on the downhill we find we haven’t got very good breaks, we jogged gently across the bottom of the field through the last bit of woods and back to the car. It was fun it was exercise and the whole thing took about twenty minutes

Back to work tomorrow, stay safe and be strong everyone

Looks absolutely lovely 😀. Well done you two. I've just come back from a 5k walk. Got a few foot niggles but the shin splints feel better. If it's not one thing it's another!

All the aches and pains of the runner

We did 5k yesterday so this was just a walk for fun and to be out in the sunshine

Good to know you are well and hope the foot niggles leave you soon

Hope your shin splints improve soon Delly-Dot!

It's great you notice the difference and new lease of life that running has given you both on days like this. Best wishes.

Yes walking is just easy and we walk a lot faster and run around in between and now we have our favourite running place and our favourite walking place

More lovely photos from you W&S, glad you enjoyed your walk today.

This Sunday after yesterday's 5k run I went a 7K walk after breakfast, in the afternoon I went a short bike ride, when I came back I took my neighbours dog a walk, I am now suntaning in my garden, glad that I have a garden as people with no garden cannot sun tan in a park during this lockdown.

You have more energy than us Al, i’ve done loads of laundry got dry and put away made Willow his favourite chocolate cake and butterscotch for me

I was going to Sainsburys but for the life of me by the time we went out I couldn’t think of one thing we needed so we went for a walk instead

Sainsburys probably would have been mobbed with people outside queuing around the block two metres apart with trollies so it's just as well you went a walk instead, ha ha, any chance of sending up to Scotland your homemade butterscotch and chocolate 🎂 cake, no, but you enjoy it.

Inspirational photos there. Improvement in fitness is such a great feeling. I think you both earned that cake. Lockdown may be trying but mother nature encouraging in the best way she can. More power and health in your stride to all runners🏃
