I wasn't sure where to put this because it wasn't a run, just a walk.It's been a day of mixed emotions, I was up very early and drove here with very little traffic. Spent most the day trying to stay awake so I didn't miss the bed delivery that didn't come. Finally spoke to them and they told me it wasn't on the van!!! I was furious and the only thing you can do with fury is walk or run it off. So off I went, in warm sunshine looking for the sea .
Very soon I was on the beach and smiling again 😁.
I didn't walk very far but that soft sand is hard going. It's beautiful, I wanted a paddle but I wanted dinner more so I turned round as walked back again.
My first explore and I enjoyed it.
I've put a few photos together and as this is a running forum the runs will come soon .
Run happy or rest well xx

I wish you health and happiness in your new home Sue. That sand looks really good for strengthening the legs and ankles! I’d be using that every day if I was there 💪 Then a quick paddle to cool off. Perfect 👌
🍏🤗Love these photos!! Gorgeous beach! Wow are you going to enjoy living here!! Annoying that the bed delivery 🚚 didn’t appear 😩 however your reaction was the best!!! Hope they deliver soo!! Sending love & a 🤗 before I disappear!! 🫠 xx
Beautiful open vistas there for walking or running. I hope you have another bed there for a good sleep tonight, and that the one you were expecting will be there tomorrow! 🤞
It's not coming til next week but I'll head south later today or tomorrow, it's not that much of a problem as I slept fairly well, need black out curtains though, I woke at dawn 🤣, going shopping later, might find a sunbed to sleep on. It's exercise though getting up off the floor 😁
Yes, blackouts are essential at this time of year. Confession.. I’ve had half- made blackout lined curtains pinned over my bedroom windows for almost a year. The light peeping round the edges should have made me get on with making them properly, but.. I hate sewing! I’m sure the annoyance of looking at them every night half done isn’t helping me to relax at all! 😂😂😂
Ha ha ha, I'm not keen on sewing, gave my machine away the other day 😀.I went out bought a thick duvet, folded it in half, lay on it, pulled my thin one over me and slept a solid 2 hours this afternoon, much more comfy,
The North Sea has such big skies doesn’t it? Looks brighter there than in Lincolnshire too, even though not that far away. Walking/running by the sea can’t help but have a calming effect, especially with useless delivery companies. Ah well, tomorrow is another day xx
I wonder where my answer went? Apologies if you get two.. I was thinking that about the skies last night 😀 he far away? Maybe I'll come to parkrun your way once I'm settled 😀 xx
How did I miss this Sue? I had no idea you were planning to move. Whereabouts are you in Norfolk? It looks beautiful. I hope you’ll be very happy in your new home and that your bed, when it arrives, will have been worth the wait! In the meantime, safe travels and rest well. Lots of love. Xx
Makes sense. I’ll miss you, but you’re a great virtual running buddy. Do make contact whenever you’re on one of your return trips to the south coast. Here’s to new beginnings! Finally completed on my mum’s house yesterday, so it’s time for me to look for somewhere to buy, having been in rented accommodation for the best part of 30 years. Exciting but scary stuff! I think you were very brave. ❤️ Xx
A lovely location and walk to lose the frustration! It is going to be fun!
You are moving to a beautiful place and the prospect of new walks and new runs too, is a real adventure.
Your legs will need to be strong for that sandy run... and it really can take its a toll on the calf muscles... lots of exercises for those o though on S and F. remember my first one at Hafan Pwhelli ? Gosh, what a change !
SueAppleRun I want to wish you all the very best with your new life by the sea in a beautiful part of the country. Being Essex born and bred, Great Yarmouth was our family holiday almost every year. This area holds a special place in my heart and when I'm in Essex in the Summer, hopefully Tasha and I can come and meet you there. Can't wait to hear and read about all of your adventures. What a beautiful place to call home 💚
They really are fabulous photos, Sue. What a great place to live.
It was obviously a good time to go out and have a look at the nearest walks for you. The soft sand sounds like a good workout! You’ll have muscles on muscles! Perhaps hold off on the Great Yarmouth North Beach parkrun for a while though 🤣.
I still feel annoyed about your bed, maybe I should go for a walk, too! If you’re staying another night I hope you get something softer to sleep on. xx
That looks a beautiful place for a walk or run Sue and I’m sure you’re going to love it! Sorry to hear about the bed not arriving, I hope you slept ok on the floor, the bed will feel all the more comfortable when it does finally arrive!
Thank you, I'm south so would run towards Gt Yarmouth I think, I've explored but not far yet, I'll keep that cafe in mind 😁 the beach took me just a few minutes to get to 😁
ooh I hadn’t realised you were moving so far away Sue, but what a lovely place to be. Wishing you much happiness in your new home and with your new life.
Gorleston is along nice smooth prom but yes Gt Yarmouth is the tough one, somewhere there is a photo of me winning a race on GT Yarmouth beach I was probably about 8 🤣
