Graduating by the sea 😊

I really wanted to finish the C25k programme on a high so to achieve a 5k in 29'14" was amazing. I celebrated with a walk on the beach followed by a brief sprint along the cliff walk.

This would not have been possible without the support from you guys, friends, family and work colleagues. THANK YOU ALL!

Grinning ear to ear again!

Thanks poppypug. Lots of new coastal routes for me to try out here - with the added benefit of virtually no road crossings.
