After slow-smashing both my 5k target ceiling and reaching my 60min run target this morning ( see post in C25k forum healthunlocked.com/couchto5... ), in RunLEJOG I find myself on the beach near Loggans Moor with other fellow runners of the C25k and Bridge210k community.
And yes, now I have to just add a beach run to my bucket list! 🏖 🏝 🌊 🏃🏻♀️
You have had a great day today CBDB, you ran your first 5k and you are now a 60 minGraduate, congratulations, you are also doing well in LEJOG 4👍🙂
Nice job... and good to read that you have lots of familiar company around you on LEJOG! Great start to another wonderful running week.
Thanks 🙏 😊 yes running and this community really seems to do wonders for lifting my spirits! So big thanks ☺️ !
Well done, I have only run very briefly on a beach as part of the Scapa Loop 5k (ish) run on Orkney. I fancy trying a proper beach run. Maybe next month in Bamburgh.
Oh nice! I love Orkney but only cycled at that time! But running on that beach sounds wonderful! I can feel my whole vacation plans shifting in my mind... now how to persuade my family?
We went to Bamburgh Castle last year and explored Northumberland. How long might one be able to run on the beach? Is there a 15 min stretch?
Thanks again! Let’s keep running! 🙏☺️
We should have been going to Orkney and Shetland again this summer to do the two parkruns that started up since our last visits.
We have been to that part of Northumberland many times but I haven't done much running there, we do walk a lot though. I am not sure about tge beach but if the tide is right it should be ok for running from near the castle to some way towards Seahouses. You wouldn't want to run in the other direction because there are lots of rocks and beyond that the sans is very soft - hard going when walking.
Amazing CBDB, I was over the moon to read your 5k post, it's amazing, huge congratulations 🎊🎉🥳💪💪🏃♀️🏃♀️🏅🏅🏅🏅🏅🍾🥂
My comfy pace 5k takes me about 45 minutes, slow is definitely better, it means you don't run out of steam and finish your runs feeling good rather than exhausted and aching.
You are doing so, so well with the LEJoG tour too, enjoy your beach run 😁
Congratulations again on the 5k, happy running 🥳🎉🎊💪🏃♀️💪🏃♀️🏅🍾🥂😊
Awwwhhh thank you!!! 😊 🙏🥰 So nice!! Comfy paces are my favourite!!! So I’m lucky that it still is the only pace I have. 🤣
Next week I’ll start the c25k+ stepping stone podcasts, but I’m not sure I can run to 165, or even 155. I might just about manage 150 but I’m sure it’ll be fun!
Thanks so, so much!!! We will run on!! 😍🙏🐌🏃🏿♀️
5k , 60 minutes of running. Well done you. Oh to try a beach run , it would be brilliant. I see other people's runs along by the sea and it looks amazing.
Good luck with your LEJOG challenge 👏👏
Aren’t you doing well? i’m loving watching people progress in this, I ran on the beach and it wasn’t as flat and smooth as it looked from a distance I got very wet
😂🤣yeah, maybe it’s one of those things which always looks so great but once you do it yourself .... you realise all the things that weren’t in the picture. 🖼 🌊 🏖 But just the thought of running whilst smelling the sea.... mmmhhh...
We are lucky to live near the sea
A great post CBDB. I have just been catching up with your 5k milestone too. What a great achievement. Well done!
I'm looking forward to the start of LEJOG5 tomorrow 😃🏃♀️. Happy running 🌷
Wooh hoo Delly-dot!! You’re on!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽! Happy LEJOG5 day to you!! 🥳😁😁😁❤️
Fantastic CBDB!! 😁😁 🏖 love the photo!! 🤩🤩
I’m having Rodda’s Cornish Clotted Cream Scones in Redruth at the moment. So, I’ll need a run on the beach later too!! ❤️
😂😂yes, join me on that beach! 🏖 But i think you might have passed me already and ... I can just about see you in the distance ... 10 miles ahead! Well done!!! 👍🏼 We‘ll find another beach!
No worries!! We are getting there and let’s face it, none of us can see the leader for dust!! 🤣🤣 So we’ll just enjoy our views as we go along! 😃🤗❤️
Beach run heaven
Virgin beach runs!!
