Oh my word, what fun!!
Willow stayed home in the warm and Jo and I decided to attempt hill sprints, well that’s a 😂 so we decided to just run, to the top of the downs, through the woods, round the fields back through the woods.
Dark grey clouds were in front of us as we marched upwards for our warm up walk with the sun on our backs and sparkling on the sea.
The little dog shouting hello excitedly to every dog we saw, arrived at the track and time to run, it’s steep so little steps very slow, walk a bit run a bit, evens out along the top so run although the track is narrow so not fast, through the woods, marvel at the trees, the views, just the best.
We didn’t have a route exactly, we just meandered this way and that slowly, taking in the beauty around us, stopping to take photos every so often.
And then back down hill, oh fun 🤩 and funny, Jo had pulled ahead on the downward stretch until it flattened out a bit so I took a deep breath and sprinted, wow,
Hills, trails, woods and beautiful views, yes!! that’s why I run!
Keep running keep resting keep laughing and the rest will sort itself out
Oh and I’ve found out how to do negative splits, up hill on the way, flattish along the top and downhill on the way back 😂 5k took us almost an hour but was the very best 5k ever
11.44, 11.07, 11.02, 10.45 & 10.29 😁
Killer hill?
That was a steep one!
