Using up this years annual leave I find myself with a few days off yay 😀
Rest and relaxation and lots of water are on the menu, woke this morning tired so oh how lovely we stayed put drank tea in bed went back to sleep, woke again ate brunch and went back to sleep
Around lunch time we started to discuss a walk and where we would go,
“Lancing Ring, Cissbury Ring or Chanctonbury ring?” I asked Willow said he’d never heard of the last one, so off we went
When we parked Willow looked upwards and said a word I can’t write here so off we walked, upwards and upwards, got a little lost so there was a bit upping and downing when we ran out of track and it was too steep
Kept going and there it was, a clump of trees on top of the world 🌍
Beautiful, listening to birdsong and glimpsing many different birds, we stopped to watch 3 buzzards above
We had walked up, round the ring of beech trees, commented on how hazy it is looking across the South Downs and started down again where we just couldn’t help ourselves and ran, because of the steepness and trees, roots, slipperiness of damp chalk and stones we took Japanese slow running to its limit and before long were wearing the biggest grins
Back at the car and we’d covered 5.91k
Tomorrow is run day so probably be a very slow plod somewhere very flat
Happy running everyone
