This week we've moved up the valley so I decided it would be 10k today or there abouts. Set off gently mostly downhill to the beach but then the coastal path to Amadores beach took its toll. When I hit the beach on came martha and the muffins echo beach which got me sprinting.

The journey back was much harder lots of uphill but I kept checking Miss Garmin and at one stage thought I might be on for a 10k PB. Unfortunately I struggled uphill and the PB vanished.

started my warm down which was still uphill and stopped the clock.

Surprised that I had a new PB for 5k and longest run.

Another day in paradise begins. Happy Running all.

Thank s BF it really has been good

Wow - amazing place to run and well done for keeping at it while you're away (please tell me your on holidays and don't live there all the time - that sun... that warmth...)... :)

Makes the holiday food and drink a little bit more guilt free too... bonus!

Yep just on hold run 6 times so far. It is a great way to relax and burn off paella and cerveza ;-)
