Walked to beach and back

After deciding 15 minutes there and 15 minutes back would give me a half hour steady walk I set off, heading towards the beach. I quickly realised the beach was less than 15 minutes away so I'd get to see the sea. Cool and cloudy this afternoon, I covered just over 2k in half hour, came back a different way and got a bit lost ๐Ÿ˜‚.

When I got home my legs felt as if they'd just run for half an hour, they are still.a bit weak but getting better

Slow and steady and that's how I feel, the walking will lead to slow running eventually

Fantastic, a view like that with the moody skies and the glow on that steel grey North Sea water is so worth the effort!

Well done for your steady progress :)
