Done it, 10k

Got out as early as I could before the heat and the crowds. Can’t say I enjoyed it really and am not in a hurry to do it again but am proud of myself. Am now going to target an under 30 mins 5k. I need a goal or I just wouldn’t go out to run. Walking no problem, running is hard, but it’s supposed to be good for me so I’m doing it.

Keep safe everyone, I’m off for a shower and a seat in the garden to recover.

Fantastic run, great time. 10k does get easier. I hated it 1st time, couldn't see the point of running that long. Then spring and lockdown came and turns out I love longer runs. Never say never. Good luck with sub30 5k. Happy running 🤗

Thanks Buddy. I picked such a great day to do it. My walk home afterwards was really lovely. I stopped in our park to do my stretches. Love this weather.

Brilliant, we've had rain and really strong winds in Scotland the past few days but not today sun is out its beautiful 🌞🌞

I used to live on the north coast, wind was the main problem there, I don’t miss that, but would love a beach again.

I would love a run right along a seafront. My favourite place , Oban
