I have so far turned right out the back gate, which seems to lead to the main (though very quiet) road then loops back round to the seafront, I did try turning off and going down a few alleyways but it wasn't happening so I turned round and as I'd been walking about 5 minutes I eased into a very slow run.....and then I found it!!!! Just left outside my back gate and a few metres on...A long track with lush green trees, so gently I carried on. For those who don't know I fell really ill on 3 may with the nastiest stomach bug I've ever had, and thinking it was a 24 hour thing I was horrified when it didn't go away and quite worried, but then I read there's a real nasty doing the rounds so I sat miserably waiting to get better.....and I just about have 😁.So, I ran, I stopped to take photos, I crossed a bridge, my new version of the railway bridge, but this one goes over a road.....after about 2 kilometres I was wondering if I should turn around when I arrived at a road so I followed it round and was soon on the seafront, a couple of kilometres from home.
Here I said hello to a few people and one man with 2 dogs stopped for a chat, so I headed home with a smile on my face, I went a bit faster and I walked a bit and Garmin clocked 5k just as I arrived back at my new bungalow, so I've found my 5k loop, including stops for photos and chats it took slightly more than an hour but it's a benchmark, somewhere I'll run every so often just because it's lovely.
Run happy or rest well 😁
