Morning run

Well after much thinking , over a couple of wine & sodas last night I decided to go , I'm glad I did . We didn't walk far yesterday to check things out in theafternoon it was far too hot , so I got up at 6.20 am & thought I'll go on my gut instinct while I'm out there , I'm glad I went . I discovered after only a few mins I was in a lovely area with roads houses a couple of shops , dog walkers & a couple of runners . It was lovely I ended up in Icmeler centre ran there & back it covered 5k . I thought we where ages away from the centre but turns out we are not . Really enjoyed it & will be doing it. Again this week . 5k in 33.29 happy running folk .

These early morning runs are the best.

Maybe no gym at the hotel turned out to be a blessing in disguise!

Happy running and enjoy your holidays.

Yes that's what it was , a blessing in disguise . I can't believe how running as altered my life , for the better . Like you I can't imagine getting out my bed last year at this time for a walk never mind a run

! I've seen lovely views on my run what I wouldn't have laid in mi bed . X

I agree. Although the dog has the knack to make us discover plenty of new and sometime wonderful places......

Sounds lovely Rockette, and there is something really special about getting up early while on holiday and going for a run.You see things from a very different perspective. A year ago I'd never ever imagine I would be writing those two sentences !!!

Have a great holiday and enjoy every minute :)
