Off out for my long run this morning in the spring sunshine! Following on from Oldfloss โs comments yesterday about imagination and positive thought, I headed to the trails planning for a 10k but prepared for a little more, depending on how my legs felt! ๐คAlthough still quite muddy and challenging in places (horses really churn up the mud donโt they?), it was a little drier overall and Iโm pleased to say, I plodded on for 13K in the end. I do think that running on trails and particularly the muddy ones has strengthened my legs. I have also managed to stay upright for a fair while now, which is always a bonus!๐๐ Happy to be building a little distance again too.๐

You did it.... Yes you did and it sounds fabulous, ( even with the mud)! Staying upright is always a bonus, I find:)This is great and your legs have found the benefits of difficult running, so mud isn't just good for your skin !
Huge well done you !
My field track was dry today too... although my Week 5 run, was only a 5K this morning
What an excellent run Sandraj39, and what a lovely day to enjoy being out in the sunshine.
Iโm really pleased that my trail shoes give me more grip but I do find I have achey calves afterwards. I think it may be because they are neutral and I normally wear supportive. I might pop up to my running shop and check out some insoles.
A nice 13K there , it was a lovely morning here also .And yes a bonus to stay upright ๐คฃ๐
Well done you ๐. How nice to feel your legs are nice and strong, that obviously gave you the added edge in the mud! And upright is always a blessing ๐คฃ.
